[Verse 1]
On the enchanted island
Forgotten by ships
She was laughing at the birds
But her heart got lost
In the menacing eyes
Of her Prince Charming
[Pre-Chorus]
She watches the sea
She watches the sky
Blending her sorrow
With the tears in her eyes
[Chorus]
It's how it is on Kythira
Under the glowing sun
With fleeting romances
Forgotten by morning
[Verse 2]
On this island of Venus
Who makes "amour" rhyme
With the word "toujours"
You also have to give
A tip to the ferryman
Who is a masterful liar
[Pre-Chorus]
She watches the sea
She watches the sky
Blending her sorrow
With the tears in her eyes
[Chorus]
It's how it is on Kythira
Under the glowing sun
With fleeting romances
Forgotten by morning
[Verse 3]
If you're thinking to go
In a fit of enthusiasm
On a little journey
Let me put it straight
Going to Kythira
Is like going to hell
Is like going to hell
[Pre-Chorus]
She watches the sea
She watches the sky
Blending her sorrow
With the tears in her eyes
She watches the sea
She watches the sky
Blending her sorrow
With the tears in her eyes
[Chorus]
It's how it is on Kythira
Under the glowing sun
With fleeting romances
Forgotten by morning
