I passed by your island at midday
the seas were calm under my ship
then an enchanting song invaded my ear
and I could feel my hand on the railing slip.
Oh the song you sing is sweet in my ear
it is drawing me close to you.
If you keep singing me your melody
I'll join you in the ocean blue.
The song carved in your mouth is sweet
and you're carving it in my ear.
You are the image of attraction
and the image of profound fear.
You're luring my ship to your rock
you continue to sing as my ship goes down.
But your song is so sweet in my ear
anyone with ears would drown.
There's a few ways this can end:
I perish from hunger unable to stray,
you decide to make me your next meal,
or I crash on the rock where you lay.
The end of your song is death
and I welcome it with open arms.
The words are sweeter than the melody
leading me into harm.
