Sirens Lyrics

Last night I dreamt I was floating with you
The river so deep and the sky perfect blue
If we leave behind the dust in the sky
From the sound of Sirens the city will rise
Hold your hand in mine, we'll swim against the tide
From the sound of sirens love will survive

And when your heart is on the run
When it's chains have come undone
I will always be the one to carry you home

Streets lie so empty, the lost avenues
The lights of Saint Vincent are too much to lose
If we leave behind the dust in the sky
From the sound of sirens the city will rise
Hold your hand in mine, we'll swim against the tide
From the sound of sirens love will survive

And when your heart is on the run
When it's chains have come undone
I will always be the one to carry you home

If we leave behind the dust in the sky
From the sound of sirens the city will rise
Hold your hand in mine, we'll swim against the tide
From the sound of sirens love will survive

When your heart is on the run
When its chains have come undone
I will always be the one to carry you home

Sirens

This poignant and soaring anthem was written by American indie singer Nell Bryden and inspired by her hometown New York, and her personal experience in the devastating aftermath of 9/11. Having avoided writing about the events for ten years, Bryden began describing her experience to Patrick Mascall at Metrophonic Studios as the ten-year anniversary of 9/11 approached and by the end of the day she had completed the song. It was included on the singer-songwriter's 2012 Shake The Tree album.

Cher described her big ballad cover as "Cher does U2."

Sirens Lyrics

Sirens

This soaring, bittersweet love song was released as the second single from Pearl Jam's tenth studio album Lightning Bolt. It finds Eddie Vedder crooning:

"I could take your hand and feel your breath.
Or feel that someday we'll be over."

"I remember when [Vedder] played that for us in his room right after he wrote the lyrics," recalled bassist Jeff Ament. "I think he had stayed up the night before writing."

Producer Brendan O'Brien, who has worked with Pearl Jam since their 1993 Vs. album, called this emotional ballad, "one of the best songs they've ever written."

Eddie Vedder talked to Rolling Stone about writing mellower music in his middle age, such as this song. The Pearl Jam frontman said there is more "sentimentality" in his lyrics nowadays, adding, "For years, it was playing word games and expressing those emotions, but doing it in such a way that was cryptic and where Mark Arm from Mudhoney would still have some modicum of respect for me. But nowadays, it's more like sitting down and writing a song, and whatever comes out, comes out."

The accompanying music video is a performance clip directed by photographer Danny Clinch, who also helmed the visual for "Mind Your Manners."

The ballad is one of several tracks on Lightning Bolt that reference mortality. Vedder told Rolling Stone the album has a lot of lyrics about the passing of life and ageing because "They say to write what you know. I think that's maybe one thing that we all know [laughs]. It's living while you're alive, and living to the day you die, and being cognizant of the end, and you might lead a more appreciative life, if that's part of your approach."

Guitarist Mike McCready told Billboard magazine that he wrote the music for the song after a Roger Waters concert for The Wall inspired him. "I wanted to write something that would have a Pink Floyd type feel," he said, "We recorded a demo of it [but Vedder] didn't put the lyrics on it until the second time we went back in... I heard them the night that he put them on there and they just brought me to tears. This is Ed at his best in my mind."

Sirens Lyrics

I just remember her tan legs standin' on the side of the road,
Honda with the hood up covered in smoke,
Thumb in the air with somewhere to go in a hurry.

She didn't say a thing, she just jumped inside,
Stuck a gun to my chest and told me to drive.
I was scared but she was beautiful, like a movie.

She kept lookin' back like somethin' was comin',
Said we ain't slowin' down, ain't stoppin' for nothin',
My truck was shaking, my blood was pumpin',
But she was laughin'.

I 'bout hit the brakes when we came around the corner,
A mile of blue lights, guns aimed and pointed.
Whatever she had is what they wanted,
And it's all a little fuzzy after that.

All I remember is Sirens,
Blue lights flashin' and drivin',
Dirt lane passin' and flyin',
Tearin' through the red lights,
Blowin' through the stop signs.
All I remember is sirens,
Ringin' from the gun shots firin',
One curve away from dyin',
And all I remember is...
Sirens.

The man on the radio reported the chase,
And all about the beauty,
How she cleaned out the bank.
She was armed and dangerous,
She almost got away but they found her.
She was cussin' at choppers,
They were swirlin' around,
Reloadin' her revolver every couple-a-rounds.
Shot off a couple shots,
But they wouldn't back down.

All I remember is sirens,
Blue lights flashin' and drivin',
Dirt lane passin' and flyin',
Tearin' through the red lights,
Blowin' through the stop signs.
All I remember is sirens,
Ringin' from the gun shots firin',
One curve away from dyin',
Baby all I remember is...
Sirens.

We were all outta road and I knew she could tell,
'Cause she leaned across my lap and buckled my belt,
And kissed me on the cheek and said,
"Thanks for the help, and hold on boy."
Well she yanked the wheel and I held my breath,
We flipped so many times we shoulda been dead.
And that's all I got,
And I just woke up here and I said

All I remember is sirens,
Blue lights flashin' and drivin',
Dirt lane passin' and flyin',
Tearin' through the red lights,
Blowin' through the stop signs.
All I remember is sirens,
Blue lights flashin' and smilin',
One curve away from dyin',
All I remember is...
Sirens.
Sirens.
And her blue eyes flashin'.
And those long legs standin' on the side of the road,
Her Honda with the hood up covered in smoke,
Thumb in the air, somewhere to go in a hurry.

Sirens Song Chart

Lee Brice produced the I Don't Dance album himself. The South Carolina singer contributed some banjo licks to this searing tune and it was the first time he'd ever played the instrument.

"One thing I tried to do on this record is a lot of classic sounds, like on Bruno Mars' record, but with a lot of hip sounds that he just created in his mind, or whatever it may have been," he told Rolling Stone. "I love putting classic steel guitar with a classic banjo - all those sounds meshed with new sounds I created in my head."
