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
