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 schoolWe 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 knewWalked 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 youOh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Mediterranean lady oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, laSummer 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 youI 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 beCircumstance 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 oursOh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Mediterranean lady oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You know you're beautiful when you smileOh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Mediterranean lady
La, la, la, la, la, la, laSeems 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 upOh, oh, oh Mediterranean lady
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
La, la, la, la, la, la, laOh, oh
Mediterranean lady
Oh, oh
You know you're beautiful when you smileOh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Mediterranean lady
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Now the ocean is in your eyesOh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Mediterranean lady
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I never meant to make you cryOh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Mediterranean lady
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I've never been good with goodbyes
