Mediterranean Lady

(Album: Hot Show - 1999)

Do you remember how we met?
Spring time on the Island of Corfu
I was lost and asked for help
You were teaching at the local school
We talked a while and then made plans
While all the children laughed at me and you
They could see the way we felt
Much before either of us knew

Walked together hand in hand
A stranger from a foreign land but soon,
mornings turned to afternoons
And dinners turned to making love
To you, to you

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady Oh......
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
LaLaLaLaLaLaLaLa

Summer days out on the beach
Cocktails on the patio at noon
You waved to me from out at sea
And I considered staying there with you
I watched the sunlight dancing through your
hair
And like a ghost of history
I don't know why
My heart just died
I realized that it could never be

Circumstance and broken dreams
Like satellites with laser beams from above
Tracked me down and found us out
And filled my head
And made me doubt
This love of ours

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
You know you're beautiful when you smile
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
LaLaLaLaLaLaLa

Seems like life has played another joke
This dream of love has left me broke again
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
What is it for
Been dumped
Been hurt
I've been around
Maybe I've forgotten how to love
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Or maybe I've given up

Oh Oh Oh Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
LaLaLaLaLaLaLa

Oh Oh .....
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh.....
You know you're beautiful when you smile
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Now the ocean is in your eyes
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
I never meant to make you cry
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
I've never been good with good-byes.
