Analogy between the new year and a siren of ancient myth. As the new year begins, we are enticed by it. Although we may understand that our ship will eventually be wrecked, we can defer that until later, and we allow ourselves to be seduced.

Lyrics
Eternal attraction...every interaction
Fills the memory and the senses
Beauty to delight my touch and my sight
Pierces my armor of pretenses
Playful flirtations, enticing sensations
Call internal forces to action
Without my permission offer full submission
To the irresistible attraction
"Open each ear and soon you will hear
I'll sing sweetly and clear, you have nothing to fear"
Beckons the voice now so near
Resists my reason sincere
Insists I have nothing to fear
The Siren of the new year
