about

When you build a town on the side of a volcano, you have to expect that millennia later a newlywed traveler would immortalize the pure fire of the place in a song for his eternal flame. And yes, the place did go to her head.

lyrics

She's sipping black cappuccino in the market square And taken in by the blue and white Greek parade And with a little Peptol Bismol she'll feel much more brave Tucked within a sexy holiday queen bee charade And though she hasn't heard a single word I try to say I pay no mind it's all so fine just watch her float away Santorini is goin to her head Lava red burning sand stretched around the shore Little man come to show us in to his home Kala eseii ya she's with me yes I would love some more Of your sweet wine from the jug sitting on the floor And though he hasn't said a single word she can ignore She pays no mind it's all so fine she floats the whole way home + We lose the time and all for love We lose our minds and all for love We lose our clothes and all that stuff + We rent two wheels to wheel us round She drives so fast I lose my crown And watch the whirling world spin by She breathes it in I take a bite And chink a drink to those back home And wonder just how far we'll roam To feel alive so deep inside And me the groom and she the bride We pour the wine then float inside + She's sipping black cappuccino in the market square And taken in by the blue and white Greek parade And singing something that she maybe would have heard today A sexy sweaty sultry melody to soothe my brain And though she hasn't heard a single word the waiters say They pay no mind Its all so fine just watch her float away
