Lyrics

Intro – distant, siren-like vocals

Ah-ah-ah

Come a little closer

Ah-ah-ah

The water's getting colder

I hear you

I hear you calling

Verse 1 – soft, breathy vocals

I saw your shadow on the shoreline

Black suit, silver chain

You said you'd been looking for me

Since the summer washed away

The moon was hanging like a promise

Over everything we knew

And I was standing in the water

With my eyes fixed onto you

You said, "Baby, don't be frightened"

As the waves came up my knees

I should've known a man like you

Would never let me leave

Pre-Chorus – vocals begin to rise

There's a voice beneath the ocean

And it sounds a lot like mine

Singing songs about forever

To a love that isn't kind

Chorus – soaring siren vocals

Hear the sirens call

Calling through the blue

Every time I try to run

The tide pulls me to you

Hear the sirens call

Echo through the night

I could drown a thousand times

Just to see your eyes

Ah-ah-ah

I'm falling through

Ah-ah-ah

I'm calling you

Verse 2 – dreamy, intimate vocals

You left your jacket on the pier

It smelled like smoke and summertime

I wore it walking through the rain

Like I could make your body mine

The fishermen said they'd seen you

Out beyond the harbor lights

But nobody comes back from there

With the same soul they had inside

And every night I hear the water

Whisper things I shouldn't know

Like the way you used to hold me

Before you let me go

Pre-Chorus – layered harmonies

There's a voice beneath the ocean

And it sounds a lot like mine

Singing songs about forever

To a love that isn't kind

Chorus – full orchestral production

Hear the sirens call

Calling through the blue

Every time I try to run

The tide pulls me to you

Hear the sirens call

Echo through the night

I could drown a thousand times

Just to see your eyes

Ah-ah-ah

I'm falling through

Ah-ah-ah

I'm calling you

Bridge – almost whispered, then building

If I had known

That love could sound like this

A thousand voices

In the darkness

Would I have stayed?

Would I have turned?

Would I have let

The whole world burn?

You were the shore

I couldn't reach

The sweetest song

Beneath the deep

Final Chorus – soaring vocals and choir

Hear the sirens call

Calling through the blue

Every time I try to run

The tide pulls me to you

Hear the sirens call

Echo through the night

I could drown a thousand times

Just to see your eyes

Ah-ah-ah

The ocean knows

Ah-ah-ah

Where my heart goes

Outro – ethereal siren vocals fading

Come a little closer

The water's getting colder

I hear you

I hear you calling

Ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah

The sirens call

The sirens call
