Lyrics

Lorelei

At the Lorelei

Sing it sweet for me tonight

All my dreams to long tonight

If only i could be the one

Hold on tight I need ya son

Wouldn't even fire the gun

If only I could be

Tie your heart and soul

To the lightning pole

Still it ain't no guarantee

In the firing line

Find your eyes aren't blind Pretty soon i'm free

At the Lorelei

Sing it sweet for me tonight

All my dreams to long tonight

If only i could be the one

Oh my god I need ya son

I won't ever let ya down

If only It could be

Through the carnage thorn

With your face like stone

Till there ain't no dignity

Pretty soon i'm free

At the Lorelei

Sing it sweet for me tonight

All my dreams to long denied

If only i could be the way

Say those things we used to say

Sometime was back yesterday

If only It could be

If only It could be

If only It could be
