Destination Lounge | Ursula Rucker – Circe | Lyric
Mido, I like this lyric from Destination Lounge Album and thought I could post the lyric. Though I could get some shades of meaning from this lyric, and I hope there are more shades. You can share them with me.
(lyric begins….)
I’ve watched you for so long
I must have you
sirens have nothing on my song
my song is ageless and perfect
angels envy my song
you must be strong to resist this
I’ve seduced men you thought were myth
gods have murdered mortals over me
they died with my name on their lips
my taste on their tongues
my love is the only one you need
come rest your earthly burdens on my breasts
you’ll find them firm like virgin’s
irresistible like goddess’
my breasts are filled with neptune’s nectar
one sip and you’ll be mine
now sink into my sea soft skin where your fantasy begins
don’t fight, you’ll never win
i know, my hair is mesmerizing
it reflects the colors of suns rising and set
you’ll never forget my wet
wonder, come under
my kiss will keep you safe
what seemed to you like minutes in my world are endless days
ride my waves of pleasure, forever
your human hands like magic from my coral strands
as our bodies melt into the sands of the ocean floor
I’m deep into your love…
but wait, my seduction
has now become a dangerous attraction
I can’t breathe … I… I can’t breathe
I’m drowning in you love, drowning…
I’m drowning … who, who are you?
and why are you saving me?
he said: “I’ve loved you from afar
with a child’s heart and a man’s longing.
I know you better than you know yourself.
better than any man, myth, or immortal.
I’ve watched you seduce for centuries
in the search for a creature who could please… you.”

there’s more, but 1st you need to corrrect the line “your human hands like magic TO my coral strands”
and the end goes…
“… please … you
Fire your desires
He could have never made you happy
You would have died in his world
Too cool … too cold
I’ve waited for this moment to swim off into the current
With you
Don’t be afraid
Your search is over, that’s all you need to know
Swim with me
Up into the current
Swim with me
Love with me
Don’t be afraid
Swim with me
… swim with me
Love with me
… love with me
Off into the current
… off in to the current”
