Though the waves were plenty strong
Down the twisting river Rhine
Following a song…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Legend’s faded storyline
Tried to warn us all
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh, the stories we were told
Quite a vision to behold
Mysteries of the seas in her eyes of gold…
Laying on the silver stone, such a lonely sight
Barnacles become a throne, my poor Loreley…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You would not believe your eyes, how a voice could hypnotize
In a shade of mossy green, seashell in her hand
She was born the river queen, ne’er to grace the land…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh, the song of Loreley
Charms the moon right from the sky…
You know you will ever be with your Loreley…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
