starry nights by Jan Smit
Starry nights above Athinai
Magic nights when i met you
You were a captivating sight
What a wonderful delight
To hear you say oh i love you

I met you in Monemvasia
There on an island in the sun
You told me you were called Maria
And from the start you turned me on
You showed me the ancient places
I recall how it all began

Starry nigts above Athinai
Magic nights when i met you
You were a captivating sight
What a wonderful delight
To hear bouzoukis play their melodies

Starry nights above Athinai
Magic nights when i met you
You were a captivating sight
What a wonderful delight
To hear you say oh i love you

You showed me all of Athinai
Revealed her golden history
You taught me 'bout the gods of Greece
The ancient ruins of Delphi
But it was you that turned my head
Your pretty smile that drove me mad
