You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever

But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun
[Versetto]
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C
And the colours of the sea bind your eyes with trembling mermaids 
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C
And you touch the distant beaches with tales of brave Ulysses 
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C
How his naked ears were tortured by the sirens sweetly singing 
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C
While the sparkling waves are calling you to kiss their white laced lips

And you see a girl's brown body dancing through the turquoise 
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C
And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C 
And when your fingers find her she drowns you in her body
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C 
Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind
[Versetto]

The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers

Her name is Aphrodite and she rides a crimson shell 
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C
And you know you cannot leave her for you touched the distant sands
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C 
 
With tales of brave Ulysses how his naked ears were tortured
      A                 D  C  A                 D  C 
By the sirens sweetly singing

And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter
