about

‘The Siren’s Song’ explores themes of life and death, fear and
courage and the pull to Charlie’s homeland - Cornwall - and away from the city of Brighton. It’s another sea-inspired song from the Celtic, self-proclaimed ‘mermaid-witch’, with sultry lyrics, a hypnotic beat and gritty, enchanting vocals. You might just get sucked into the depths under her spell.

lyrics

daughter of the water
what do you want with me?
daughter of the water
angel of the sea
she’ll pull me in to meet my maker
but I have seen her and I could take her
di di de dia dia di….

put down my shoes
got my birthday suit
can’t promise I’ll be back soon
‘cause I’m heading for the Celtic coast and the siren’s song

di di de dia dia di….

daughter of the water
I’ll dance with death and you
like a sea lamb up for slaughter
but somehow I’m renewed
your pink-gold locks fly all around me
seems like heaven could be drowning
di di de dia dia di….

put down my walking boots
commandeer my own ship
hope he’ll follow suit
‘cause I’m heading for the Celtic coast and the siren’s song

di di de dia dia di….

she said ‘look death straight in the eye
look fear straight in the eye
I am not afraid to die,
I am not afraid of life’
she said ‘look death straight in the eye
look fear straight in the eye'
'said 'I am not afraid to die,
I am not afraid of life’

'cause I’m ready
'said I'm ready for the Celtic coast and the siren’s song

oh oh oh oh oh woah oh
(di di de dia dia di….)

daughter of the water
what do you want with me?
