Lyrics

There were songs she would sing to me
But now Time has gone and deceived me

The wisest words exist in books so seldom read
Piercing thoughts are felt in words so seldom said
The deepest waters house treasures never seen
The sweetest sin is in her melody

When she stands shadows tell her name
With her hands she reveals her face

But now she?s coming ?round to pull me in again
And when she?s singing out her voice will take me in
Sirens calling out in tones that bind my will
The sweetest sin is masked in time to kill

And she?s calling
Yeah she?s calling out to me
And she?s pulling
Yeah she?s pulling me out to sea
