IN ALBANIA
When we've all had a few and the mood is right, i will play the violin in the moonlight. I will play the violin in the moonlight, in the moonlight in Albania. In Albania, i will play the violin in the moonlight. I will play the violin in the moonlight in Albania.
You are never gonna let me know your name, but i will love you all the same. I will love you all the same in Albania. In Albania, i will love you all the same. I will love you all the same in Albania.
Now lose the mascara and the necklace, 'cause i will love you breathless. I will love you breathless in Albania. In Albania, i will love you breathless. I will love you breathless in Albania.

IN ATHENS
This world is a boring place full of telephones. This world is a lost case. Leave it to the drones. There's no love anywhere, no space up in the air. And if anything happens, it happens in Athens.
Oh darling this is serious, and there is no precedent. Can't you see now? Loving you i've learned to live again, but there is only you and me now.
We come from the silence, you and i. From the mountains and the islands, by land, sea, and sky, with our moves and smiles. All with different styles, and many different patterns. Different patterns in Athens.
Right after this shot, i will take you out. We will drink, drink a lot, all night. We will get around, and walk all over town whispering sweet nothings. Sweet nothings in Athens.

LIKE THE SUN
I, i shut my eyes and ears. I shut my eyes and ears, but the night still comes in. Oh, the night still comes in; and i wanna be like the sun when it touches your skin.
My heart, my heart is a rock. My heart is a rock, but it's burning like wood. Oh, it's burning like wood; and i wanna be like the sun when it makes you feel good.
Like a thief, like a thief in the night. Like a thief in the night i'll set fire to the lake. I'll set fire to the lake, 'cause i wanna be like the sun, and keep you awake.

I LOVE YOU ALL NIGHT
I love you all night, i love you all day. And i don't know what it's about, but i love you anyway.
In the morning when i awake, i'm thinking of you. The blackest brew that i will ever make is just a dark blue.
In the day, when i am working and my body is sore, i'm not searching for meaning anymore.
Now at night when the wine tastes fruity and red, i'm feeling just fine with you in my head.

I KNOW WHO YOU ARE
Your hair was brown; your hair was blond. You took me to the bar.
Your hair was short; your hair was long. But i know who you are.
I know who you are.
Your eyes were green; your eyes were blue; and you taught me the game. Your eyes were brown, and black too; and you were not the same.
You were not the same.
I saw you by chance, and never again. I saw you, and you stole a glance right through the flame.
You promised me you'd stay, and i drank until i drowned. You were going away to another town.
To another town.
I saw you by chance, and never again. I saw you when you stole a glance right through the flame.

HAREM
Can i be in your harem? I'd like to be the one you never see, but dream about every night.
Can i be in your harem? Be ready to play every day, drinking your wine all the time.
Maybe i'll grab your hips, and run my fingers up your spine. Maybe i'll kiss your lips, but that won't make you mine. That won't make you mine.
Can i be in your harem? Just be one of the boys the sultana enjoys. And whenever you want me to, i'll go to sleep with you.

BRIGHTEN MY DAY
I bet you do that all the time. I mean, blow your neighbor's mind. You spiked my cuscus, didn't you? Didn't you? Didn't you taste my juice, and brighten my day? And brighten my day.
Come on, tell me what your name is. I don't know what your game is, but you loaded the dice, didn't you? Didn't you? Didn't you check me out twice, and brighten my day? And brighten my day.
You brightened my day when it wasn't even dark, i have to say. You opened the sky, didn't you? Didn't you? Didn't you look me in the eye, and brighten my day? And brighten my day.

HEART IN YOUR HEAD
Men used to believe that your mind was in your chest. That's how it feels that it would work the best. If your thoughts are not up here, but down there instead, i like the idea of the heart in your head.
Yodahee odalee, daleedeedeeyo daleedee-ah. Yodalee odalee odalee daleedeeho deedalee dee-ah.
Now when you're lying in your bed, still wearing your jeans, the heart in your head will give you sweet dreams.
When you're lying in your bed, not feeling so hot, the heart in your head will help you a lot.

YOU DRIVE ME CRAZY
You drive me crazy. You drive me cuckoo. You drive me crazy, crazy for you. You drive me crazy, crazy as a loon. You drive me crazy, drive me like the moon.
Don't give me water, 'cause i want wine. Don't give me water: what i want is wine. Give me all the wine you can find.
And if you've been burning in the sun, or catching cold in the rain... If you've been burning in the sun or catching cold in the rain, please rest your head on my shoulder again.

IF I WAS HALF AS BEAUTIFUL AS YOU
If i was half as beautiful as you... If i was half as beautiful as you, my little girl,... If i was half as beautiful as you, i'd show the world a thing or two.
And if you let me hold your hand... If you let me hold your hand, my little girl,... If you let me hold your hand, maybe even i will understand.
Show me up and down and left and right. Show me up and down, and left and right. Show me up, show me down, show me left and right, and maybe even i will see the light.
