[D5]                     [D/C]           [D/B]            [D/Bb]
You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever,
[D5]                     [D/C]           [D/B]            [D/Bb]
But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun.

(guitar echoes bass)
[D5]            [D/C]           [D/B]                  [D/Bb]
And the colors of the sea blind your eyes with trembling mermaids,
[D5]                 [D/C]           [D/B]            [D/Bb]
And you touch the distant beaches with tales of brave Ulysses:
[D5]              [D/C]             [D/B]            [D/Bb]
How his naked ears were tortured by the sirens sweetly singing,
[D5]                     [D/C]          [D/B]            [D/Bb]
For the sparkling waves are calling you to kiss their white laced lips.

And you see a girl's brown body dancing through the turquoise,
[D5]                  [D/C]              [D/B]           [D/Bb]
And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea.
[D5]               [D/C]           [D/B]               [D/Bb]
And when your fingers find her, she drowns you in her body,
[D5]                [D/C]           [D/B]             [D/Bb]
Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind.

Her name is Aphrodite and she rides a crimson shell,
[D5]               [D/C]              [D/B]                [D/Bb]
And you know you cannot leave her for you touched the distant sands
[D5]             [D/C]             [D/B]                [D/Bb]
With tales of brave Ulysses; how his naked ears were tortured
[D5]                  [D/C]
By the sirens sweetly singing.

The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers,
[D5]               [D/C]             [D/B]              [D/Bb]
And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter.
