From: Axel Airiman          
I've got the songtext from: www . lyrics . ch - Thanks :) 
 
 
Verse:
 
G      
She was drowned in suicide faithless lover cast aside
Em      C
This is how she came to be Lorelei of the sea
G    
Hopes destroyed she wanted to find certain death peace of mind
Em     C
Now you wonder who is she Lorelei of the sea 
 
Many tales I've been told of sailors having died
after seeing a mermaid known as Lorelei
Faithless lover that is me and she siren of the sea
So next time that the seagulls fly don't you cry sweet Lorelei 
 
 
[Chours]
G
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
Em           C
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei 

 
The guilt is mine I was untrue the question is what am I to do
All I know is I got to try to find sweet Lorelei
Make amends for what's been done cause I believe that she's the one
Try to find sweet Lorelei 
 
[Repeat chours] 
 
[Bridge]
D   C
There she is I hear her cry
D     C
She's asking me if I will die 

 
There ain't nothing I won't do for Lorelei
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
