Darren Hayes - The Siren's Call lyrics

Tie me up against the mast and shield the sunlight from my eyes I no longer can resist the haunting of her cries They call me from the jagged rock It was the sweetest melody Like gold and honey dripping from the fingertips of God I feel the wind against my face from the flapping of her wings I feel the black and silky tenderness all choking me But I can almost taste happiness It's such a long way off But I can almost feel your embrace Above the siren's call Now it's not beautiful or pure But it exists beyond the shore It struggles to be heard above the screeching of her call Beneath my feet a rumbling A hundred demons clambering They chase away my harmony and make love afraid to call They grow forever restless and as our ship sets out to sea No they will not be silenced Never for you or me But I can almost taste happiness It's such a long way off But I can almost feel your embrace Above the siren's call And I've seen a hint of it This happiness This bliss Just knowing it exists I know that I must try And I've caught a glimpse of it One moment just one kiss From the corner of my eye Of better days gone by But I can almost taste happiness But I can almost feel your embrace
