It catches me unaware
A voice out of nowhere
A vision of long dark hair
And I'm back there
Sunbeams warm and kind
Men working down the Rhine
Patchouli throws my mind
Back to our time
I hear her, like Lorelei
I hear her, like Lorelei
The boatman knows his way
He navigates every day
Sometimes in misty grey
The mind is led astray
I hear her, like Lorelei
I hear her, like Lorelei
Lorelei, Lorelei...
I hear her, like Lorelei
A voice he's heard before
A tone so soft and sure
He thought he'd hurt no more...
I hear her, like Lorelei
I hear her, like Lorelei
Lorelei, Lorelei...
I hear her, like Lorelei
I hear her...
I hear her...
