Lyrics:

You though the leading winter would bring you down forever

But you rode upon a steamer to violence of the sun

And the colours of the sea blind your eyes with trembling mermaids

And you touch the distant beaches with tales of brave Ulysses

How his naked ears were tortured by the sirens sweetly singing

While the sparkling waves are calling you to kiss the white laced lips

Middle part:

Solo on these chords with lots of distortion and wahwah

Beat * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

And you see a girls brown body dancing through the turqouise

And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea

And when your fingers find her she drowns you in her body

Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind

**Middle part again**

The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers

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

Her name is Aphrodite and she rides a crimson shell

And you know you cannot leave her for you touched the distant sands

With tales of brave Ulysses how his naked ears were tortured

By the sirens sweetly singing

**Solo on verse chords**

The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers

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

**More solo on verse**

And that would be it...
