Songs for the Philippines - Sirens Lyrics
Hear the sirensHear the sirens.Hear the sirensHear the circus so profoundI hear the sirensMore and more in this here townLet me catch my breath to breatheAnd reach across the bedJust to know we're safeI am a grateful manThe slightest bit of lightAnd I can see you clearOh, have to take your handAnd feel your breath for fear this someday will be overI pull you close, so much to lose knowing that nothing lasts foreverI didn't care before you were here.I danced with laughter with the everafterBut all things changeLet this remainHear the sirensCovering distance in the nightThe sound echoing closerWill they come for me next time?For every choice mistake I've made it's not my planTo send you in the arms of another manAnd if you choose to stay I'll wait, I'll understandOh, it's a fragile thingThis life we leadIf I think too much I can get overwhelmed by the grace.By which we live our lives with death over our shoulders.Want you to know that should I goI always loved you, held you high above, true.I study your face, and the fear goes away.It's a fragile thing, this life we lead.If I think too much I can get overwhelmed by the graceBy which we live our lives with death over our shoulderWant you to know that should I go,I always loved you, held you high above, true.I study your face,And the fear goes away,The fear goes away,The fear goes away.Ah, ah, oh, ohAh, ah, oh, oh
