This Mortal Coil marked the end of my purchaseing of wax as we know it which about the time "Song To The Siren" circa 1983 which was the pinicile of my listening habit way back then..


This Mortal Coil
Song To The Siren

On the floating, shipless, oceans
I did all my best to smile
til your singing eyes and fingers
drew me loving into your eyes.
And you sang "Sail to me, sail to me,
Let me enfold you."
Here I am, here I am
waiting to hold you.
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you here when I was full sail?
Now my foolish boat is leaning,
broken lovelorn on your rocks.
For you sang "Touch me not, touch me not,
Come back tomorrow."
Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow.
I'm as puzzled as a newborn child.
I'm as riddled as the tide.
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or shall I lie with death my bride?
Here me sing: "Swim to me, swim to me,
Let me enfold you."
Here I am, Here I am, waiting to hold you."

All my tranforms were transfered to cassette from then on as I was a proud owner of the best portable hi fi that was on the market then it had two large detachable reflex speakers which when tested in the car was the loudest thing on the road, then that I knew of.. that was about the time that Barclay James Harvest were burnt to the all new compact disc system which I beleive was the first group here in the UK.
