Merrily we sailed along 
Though the waves were plenty strong 
Down the twisting river Rhine 
Following a song... 
Legend's faded storyline 
Tried to warn us all 
Oh, they called her "Loreley" 
Careful or you'll fall... 

Oh, the stories we were told 
Quite a vision to behold 
Mysteries of the seas in her eyes of gold... 
Laying on the silver stone, such a lonely sight
Barnacles [bad word] a throne, my poor Loreley... 

And the winds would cry, and many men would die 
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley... 
x2

You would not believe your eyes, how a voice could hypnotize 
Promises are only lies from Loreley 
In a shade of mossy green, seashell in her hand 
She was born the river queen, ne'er to grace the land... 

[refrain]

Oh, the song of Loreley 
Charms the moon right from the sky... 
She will get inside your mind, loveley Loreley... 
When she cries "Be with me until the end of time" 
You know you will ever be with your Loreley...

[refrain]
