Sirens lyrics by Original Broadway Cast

 

Sirens Song Lyrics


ROCHESTER
Damn the passion, damn the skies
Damn the light that's in her eyes
I know too well where it has led before
She saves me but I can't be saved
Frees me but I'm still enslaved
Now I battle what I most adore
Oh, let me sail away and make this vow
That what my heart wants I will not allow
For as sirens call the sailors she calls me now
JANE
God save him if he can be saved
Free him if his soul's enslaved
Clear the clouded refuge of his mind
Quell his anger, calm his scorn
Let his spirit be reborn
Help him gather sight where he is blind
ROCHESTER
Oh, let me sail away, get lost at sea
Where I won't hear her voice
Where I am blind and free
For as sirens call the sailors
She calls to me
JANE (with Rochester above)
For I believe the ghosts of shame
That haunt his past will rest at last
The pain will cease
I'll bring him peace
ROCHESTER
I cannot stand another knock
My body dashed upon the rocky shore
The darkness that invades my soul
It sucks my blood, it takes control
Well, I will not endure it anymore
JANE (with Rochester below)
I cannot sleep, I cannot breathe, I cry his tears
I sense the secrets of his past, I feel his fears
And I believe the ghosts of shame
That haunt his past will rest at last
The pain will cease
I'll bring him peace
ROCHESTER
Damn the passion, damn the skies
Damn the light that's in her eyes
I know too well where it has led before
She saves me but I can't be saved
Frees me but I'm still enslaved
Now I battle what I most adore
Oh, let me sail away, get lost at sea
Where I won't hear her voice
Where I am blind and free
For as sirens call the sailors
She calls to me
THE FIGURE
Ahhh
ROCHESTER (with Jane and Figure below)
She calls to me
She calls to me
THE FIGURE
Aaaah!
JANE
Heal his pain
Calm his sea
And let him sail on gentler waters
To me
