A girl from the world
She ain't lived anywhere long enough to call it a home
She longs for the ocean
And like her mother she travels alone
She's a list of places she wants to see
That she ticks off as she goes
Sometimes she makes friends
Sometimes she doesn't and she doesn't know
On an island
The younger sister to Santorini
She laid out and dreamed of home in her bikini
And when she woke the shore covered her feet
The ocean coming from Crete
Men will always travel
And find the girls laying on the beaches
This man he saw this girl
And told her he'd been looking for her
He told her all his dreams were her
He's making up lies
And so she's going out for Dionysus
And she'll see his play at the Acropolis tonight
But when she woke there's no one at her feet
Just the ocean coming from Crete
Another man along the way
He fell in love and wanted to run away
So he bought a ticket to Athens
And he'll meet her there tomorrow if she calls him today
But when she woke there's a letter at her feet
And the ocean coming from Crete
On an island
The younger sister to Santorini
She laid out
And dreamed of home in her bikini
And when she woke
The shore covered her feet
The ocean coming from Crete
And when she woke the shore covered her feet
The ocean coming from Crete
