Greek Island Days

We landed late, salty skin Blue baggage tags and lemon gin You in linen, me in shades Bare feet on the ferry rail The harbor glowed with painted boats Old men laughed in open doors We dropped our bags by the white stone wall Then ran to the water before it cooled Hold me close, let the heat roll by One more night, one more tide Say my name in the island air I’m already gone nowhere Greek island days, Greek island nights We never sleep, we just feel right Salt on your neck, sand on my shoes Greek island days, I’m stuck on you (stuck on you) Greek island days, Greek island nights One more kiss under burning skies Take me to where the wild wind flows Greek island days, don’t let me go (don’t let me go) Plastic cups and a cheap white deck Fingers sticky from peach and sweat Your laugh hit hard on the terrace bar While the dancefloor shook through the tar Cicadas screamed through the olive hills Moon came up like a silver spill We chased the dark down a stair of stone Then found ourselves and headed home Hold me close, let the heat roll by One more night, one more tide Say my name in the island air I’m already gone nowhere Greek island days, Greek island nights We never sleep, we just feel right Salt on your neck, sand on my shoes Greek island days, I’m stuck on you (stuck on you) Greek island days, Greek island nights One more kiss under burning skies Take me to where the wild wind flows Greek island days, don’t let me go (don’t let me go) When the first light cuts the bay We’ll be shadows in the wake Bottle caps and broken plans Still your hand fits in my hand Let the morning take its time Let the ferry draw the line I’ll keep the taste, I’ll keep the glow From that island road Greek island days, Greek island nights We never sleep, we just feel right Salt on your neck, sand on my shoes Greek island days, I’m stuck on you (stuck on you) Greek island days, Greek island nights One more kiss under burning skies Take me to where the wild wind flows Greek island days, don’t let me go (don’t let me go)
