Scorpions — Lorelei

[Verse 1] There was a time when we sailed on together Once had a dream that we shared on the way There was a place where we used to seek shelter I never knew the pain of the price I would pay You led me on with a cloak and a dagger And I didn't know you had made other plans You had me believe we were meant for forever I really thought my heart would be safe in your hands [Chorus] Lorelei My ship has passed you by And though you promised me to show the way You led me astray You were my Lorelei What kind of fool was I Because I believed in every word you said And now I wonder why Lorelei [Verse 2] There was a time when we held one another Baring our souls in the light of the flame Those were the days now I've lost my illusions Sometimes I wake in the night and I call out your name [Chorus] [Verse 3] Now there's a light that shines on the river Blinding my eyes from so far away Shot through the heart but now I know better As hard as it is to resist the song that you play Lorelei
