This song was inspired by the plight of so many immigrating across the Mediterranean Sea...thousands of persons escaping from repression, social unrest, or even civil war. All searching for a brighter future.

LYRICS

Well, I was born right on the beach
I let the waves come and lick my feet
I let the sun settle on me
Like a veil, like I was everybody’s bride

I took an interest from a young age
In certain smells, in certain chemicals
How they could melt upon the brain
Like a cut of honeycomb on the tongue

Come, come on and love me
It’s so nice to need me
I can make you happy
I can make you beg for me
I can make you beg for me
And maybe I will
They’re praying,
“Aphrodite, daughter of the foam
Don’t leave me alone tonight”
They’re singing, 
“Aphrodite, daughter of the foam
Don’t leave me alone tonight- tonight”

And if I press up to your chest
My little ear- you know what I’ll hear?
I’ll hear my own heart become the sea
You’re a seashell, my little seashell

And if you say my name, my name
You say it like a prayer
And if you come, you come
With birds and wine
You better tend my sacred flame
With myrtle and with roses
Cause you want to- don’t you want to?

Come, come on and love me
It’s so nice to need me
I can make you happy
I can make you beg for me
I can make you beg for me
And maybe I will
