by: Eagle Eye Cherry

>From the album "Desireless" 

 

From: Axel Airiman          

I've got the songtext from: www.lyrics.ch - Thanks :) 

 

 

Verse:

 

G      

She was drowned in suicide faithless lover cast aside

Em      C

This is how she came to be Lorelei of the sea

G    

Hopes destroyed she wanted to find certain death peace of mind

Em     C

Now you wonder who is she Lorelei of the sea 

 

Many tales I've been told of sailors having died

after seeing a mermaid known as Lorelei

Faithless lover that is me and she siren of the sea

So next time that the seagulls fly don't you cry sweet Lorelei 

 

 

[Chours]

G

Seagulls fly when mermaids cry

Em           C

Those tears wont dry for Lorelei 



 

The guilt is mine I was untrue the question is what am I to do

All I know is I got to try to find sweet Lorelei

Make amends for what's been done cause I believe that she's the one

Try to find sweet Lorelei 

 

[Repeat chours] 

 

[Bridge]

D   C

There she is I hear her cry

D     C

She's asking me if I will die 



 

There ain't nothing I won't do for Lorelei

Seagulls fly when mermaids cry

Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
