Long afloat on shipless oceans I did all my best to smile 'Til your singing eyes and fingers Drew me loving to your isle 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 hare when I was fox? And now my foolish boat is leaning Broken lovelorn on your rocks, For you sing "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow" O my heart, O my heart Shatters from the sorrow" I'm as puzzled as the newborn child I'm as troubled as the tide Should I stand amid the breakers? Or should I lie with death my bride? Oh, Hear me sing: Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"

Foi a primeira gravação de “Song to the Siren” feita por Pat Boone em 1969, antes da versão de Buckley.
A versão de Buckley apareceu no álbum *Starsailor* de 1970 e também na coletânea *Morning Glory: The Tim Buckley Anthology*.
Buckley gravou a música no episódio final da série *The Monkees*, que foi incluído no álbum da coletânea.
Após a morte de Buckley em 1975, a canção ganhou notoriedade por várias cover versions, destacando‑se a de This Mortal Coil em 1983.
A composição foi escrita em colaboração entre Tim Buckley e Larry Beckett.
