Lyrics
0:21She was drowned in suicide
0:23Faithless lover cast aside
0:25This is how she came to be
0:28Lorelei of the sea
0:30Hopes destroyed she wanted to find
0:33Certain death peace of mind
0:35Now you wonder who is she
0:38Lorelei of the sea
0:40Many tales I´ve been told of sailors having died
0:45After seeing a mermaid known
0:48Known as Lorelei
0:50Faithless lover that is me
0:53And she siren of the sea
0:55So next time that the seagulls fly
0:58Don´t you cry sweet Lorelei
1:01Seagulls fly
1:02When mermaids cry
1:05Those tears won´t dry
1:07For Lorelei
1:10Seagulls fly
1:12When mermaids cry
1:15Those tears won´t dry
1:17For Lorelei
1:40The guilt is mine I was untrue
1:42The question is what am I to do
1:44All I know is I got to try
1:47Try to find sweet Lorelei
1:49Make amends for what´s been done
1:52´Cause I believe that she´s the one
1:54And I will go where seagulls fly
1:57Try to find sweet Lorelei
2:00Seagulls fly
2:02When mermaids cry
2:04Those tears won´t dry
2:06For Lorelei
2:09Seagulls fly
2:11When mermaids cry
2:14Those tears won´t dry
2:16For Lorelei
2:59There she is I hear her cry
3:04She´s asking me if I will die
3:09There ain´t nothing I won´t do
3:12For you Lorelei
3:17Seagulls fly
3:21When mermaids cry
3:23Those tears won´t dry
3:25For Lorelei
3:28Seagulls fly
3:30When mermaids cry
3:33Those tears won´t dry
3:35For Lorelei
3:38Seagulls fly
3:40When mermaids cry
3:43Those tears won´t dry
3:45For Lorelei
3:48Seagulls fly
3:50When mermaids cry
3:53Those tears won´t dry
3:55For Lorelei
