When Mermaids Cry Lyrics

She was drowned in suicide, faithless lover cast aside This is how she came to be, Lorelei of the sea Hopes destroyed she wanted to find, certain death peace of mind Now you wonder who is she, Lorelei of the sea
Many tales I've been told of sailors having died And after seeing a mermaid known as Lorelei Faithless lover that is me and she siren of the sea Next time that the seagulls fly, don't you cry, sweet Lorelei
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry Those tears won't dry for Lorelei Seagulls fly when mermaids cry Those tears won't dry for Lorelei
The guilt is mine, it was untrue, the question is what am I to do All I know is I've got to try, try to find sweet Lorelei Make amends for what's been done 'cause I believe that she's the one Then I will go where seagulls fly, try to find sweet Lorelei
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry Those tears won't dry for Lorelei Seagulls fly when mermaids cry Those tears won't dry for Lorelei
There she is, I hear her cry Asking me if I will die There ain't nothing I won't do For you, Lorelei, Lorelei
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry Those tears won't dry for Lorelei Seagulls fly when mermaids cry Those tears won't dry for Lorelei
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry Those tears won't dry for Lorelei Seagulls fly when mermaids cry Those tears won't dry for Lorelei
