Hail Odysseus Lyrics

	He surely sails on tameless seas
	With idle hours in devils hands
	One hundred men on tameless seas
	Always searching for sacred land
	Rain lashing raw shoulders
	So heave, onwards, and heave again!
	With wrists bangled in scars again
	From below, she watched only him
	Secretly, she watched only him
	Stowaway, she crept so grim
	He surely sails enchanted seas
	Hearing voices he believes
	Hail Odysseus, come to us
	So heave onwards and heave toward us
	With wrists bangled with gold and stars
	And from below she screams out ‘No! Odysseus, please don’t go’!
	And you must fear the voice you hear
	Already now, they’re so near
	‘And you will fall at the sirens call, into their poisoned claws!’
	Fearing loss she watched them go
	The sirens, she thought, take me
	From below, she leapt into the sea
	From the sea to the land, greeting her, a golden hand
	‘Welcome child, to our isle, become one, take my hand’
	So it was, a new voice sung aloud from the sand
	‘So now sing, lure them in, Odysseus can be your king
	The only way to love him, dear child, is to sing them in’
	And so it was, the crew were lost, even brave Odysseus
	Into her arms forevermore, she sings no longer on the shore

	He surely sails on tameless seas
	With idle hours in devils hands
	One hundred men on tameless seas
	Always searching for sacred land
	Rain lashing raw shoulders
	So heave, onwards, and heave again!
	With wrists bangled in scars again
	From below, she watched only him
	Secretly, she watched only him
	Stowaway, she crept so grim
	He surely sails enchanted seas
	Hearing voices he believes
	Hail Odysseus, come to us
	So heave onwards and heave toward us
	With wrists bangled with gold and stars
	And from below she screams out ' No! Odysseus, please don' t go'!
	And you must fear the voice you hear
	Already now, they' re so near
	' And you will fall at the sirens call, into their poisoned claws!'
	Fearing loss she watched them go
	The sirens, she thought, take me
	From below, she leapt into the sea
	From the sea to the land, greeting her, a golden hand
	' Welcome child, to our isle, become one, take my hand'
	So it was, a new voice sung aloud from the sand
	' So now sing, lure them in, Odysseus can be your king
	The only way to love him, dear child, is to sing them in'
	And so it was, the crew were lost, even brave Odysseus
	Into her arms forevermore, she sings no longer on the shore

	He surely sails on tameless seas
	With idle hours in devils hands
	One hundred men on tameless seas
	Always searching for sacred land
	Rain lashing raw shoulders
	So heave, onwards, and heave again!
	With wrists bangled in scars again
	From below, she watched only him
	Secretly, she watched only him
