He stood on the bow shouting words to himself
He said 'Captain, won't you turn her now?
Can't you hear them chant?'
But he said 'Son, they will make you forget.'
But he followed their siren song
Swimming gratefully to his grave, oh
'What could it hurt?' he said
As the threw himself into their waves
They called him up as he arose
'We're so glad you're here, mighty king of old'
And he said 'Well, I'm just glad to be home'
And he changed their siren song
Calmly listening to their praise, oh
'What could it hurt?' they sang
As the threw his heart into their hands
Well he lost his grip
And the sea grabbed hold of him
He gazed into their stares
And called, but no one came
They just chanted their siren song
Calling lovers to their graves, oh
'Our love doesn't hurt' they sang
As they threw his heart
Into the waves
