If you PM me, I can send you a recording of what it should sound like, sung by yours truly.
Hey, you there, sailor.
Yes, you there, sailor.
Where ye goin', sailor
Traveling long?
Are ye weary, sailor?
Come and rest, sailor.
Share my bed, sailor.
Come and sleep.
Are ye cold, sailor.
Warm your feet, sailor.
Warm me too, sailor.
By my hearthside.
Are ye hungry, sailor?
Here's a fish, sailor.
Glut yourself, sailor.
Fresh from the sea.
Hey, you there, sailor
Yes, you there, sailor.
Where ye goin' sailor?
Poor lost soul.
Long it's been since you've seen land,
Well there's a remedy for that;
Come to me, sailor.
Right to me, sailor.
My arms are open sailor,
Come to me.
I'm the sea, sailor.
Love the sea, sailor?
Good night, sailor-
Farewell.
Hello there
This is really cool!!! It's quite haunting and even thought I don't know the tune of the song, I found myself making one up and humming as I read. I like your lyrics, as they flow very well and are overall very creepy (in a good way, of course ) I picture a lone boat on the ocean with a siren singing this song. It's very visual and creates images in the reader's head, which is always good! Keep writing music, because you're good! But just a suggestion, I think you should write a short story or something to go along with this, as you've got the skill too
Greatly job! Stay awesome!
Hey Aurora99! Strange here and I have a review for you! Pardon me if I'm a bit rusty, but I just got back to reviewing after a break and lyrics confuse me.
Let me get onto the meaning. For the first time, I think I got it. I think that the narrator, or writer, is in love with a sailor, as shown. Basically, the narrator is the sea, and what sailors don't love the sea? Where I'm getting at is that this is a huge huge metaphor. The sailor has spent time away from the land (Can't interpret the land, so let's leave that mystery unsolved), went onto the sea, loved the sea, then eventually parted. I felt that this was a metaphor for love, as that's a common theme to see. One spends time with another for a long time, but then eventually goes back, possibly for another person or a simple fair.
Of course, there is an option as the narrator is the literal sea and the other is a literal sailor.
This poem was utmost satisfying. A little repetitive, with the use of sailor so much, but I like it. I imagine this with a soft piano playing such as "Mad World" cover by Gary Jules, I love that song.
Did I "love" this poem/lyrics, no, but I did enjoy it a lot. That's unusual with me and lyrics.
Overall, satisfying and good job
Strange gives you..
8.8/10
Good job.
Keep writing.
Stay groovy, my friend.
Hello Aurora99
I can imagine this is probably a really slow mellow tone with that haunting sound to it, probably highly instrumental. I can't really think of anything else that it could be when it's a Siren's song.
To me, a Siren needs to be singing about the death and destruction that will happen to the sailors they're luring in. It doesn't really matter what a Siren sings about, the sailor is going to come if he can hear them. I think that's what made them such deadly creatures <3. Totally awesome creatures at that. That being said, I was a little disappointed with the amount of creep in this poem.
Good night, sailor-
Farewell.
Warm me too, sailor.
By my hearthside.
