                                  The call of a siren..soft and sweet..
                                  raises yearnings burning deep
                                  laying your dreams at your feet
                                  promising every wish fulfilled..
                                  a life of ease
                                  every fantasy realized
                                  Oh! to believe that such is real..
                                  -
                                  The siren's call
                                  carried on the breeze
                                  flighty words..whispered with ease..
                                  promising Eden..
                                  a garden with no thorns..
                                  only blooms and beauty..
                                  calm seas..sunshine and stars
                                  -
                                  The Siren's call..
                                  tugging the heart strings..
                                  filling the mind..
                                  melodious and strong..
                                  raising desire..igniting the fires
                                  yearning to believe it's call..
                                  the Siren's song rings forth once more..
                                  -
                                  A siren tis but a dream
                                  it's words not real..
                                  the siren's call..empty promises
                                  hollow words
                                  shallow desires..
                                  fantasies that won't last
                                  will you be lured by the call..
                                  or turn to something that is real?
