Jane Eyre: The Musical movie - Sirens lyrics

rate me

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
