about

This song moves slowly like rolling tumbleweeds in a dry desolate desert. More unplugged than their other songs, the lonely acoustic guitar and eerie vocals give it a ghostly presence.

lyrics

Sirens In The Night
©Billy Carl Mancini (aka Bill Mason), Bonk Zone Music ASCAP

I remember a life that used to run
Like a rolling river, like the rising sun
Part of the race to get to the top
I should have stopped now and then but I gave it no thought

Where is my house? Where are my friends?
Where is my wife who used to sing?
With the voice of a siren reaching out to me
Now it is silenced and there is only me

Well I wish the time would come
When you would call me to your side
I can feel your breath upon me
And it feels so warm and nice
I can hear your voice so clearly
Just like sirens in the night

The wheels are turning so slowly now
White ghostly figures making ghostly sounds
Where is my family? Where are my friends?
I’m ready siren, just tell me when
