I remember it was cold
as a winter morning
from all directions on the island
till the sea was shining
from the north we saw
all the birds coming
under a blood red sky
a midsummer evening.
Love, my love, we will keep our love
living here, in the middle
the middle of the sea.
(My love)
Across the waters of the midland
everything was burning
(My love)
together in the sand
we were all watching
(My love)
without a word to say
some of us were crying
(My love)
but as we saw the moon
we were all singing.
Love, my love, we will keep our love
living here, in the middle
the middle of the sea.
Love, my love, we will keep our love
be living here, in the middle of
the middle of the sea…
