Matala Bay by Mick Melt / Lyrics:
A white bull charging out of the blue sea,
green waves were crashing on the shore,
and on his back a queen he bore, a miracle to see
This place was made for gods to meet, they say
where beauty meets eternal peace
they made love in the evening breeze
on the sands of Matala bay.
Yesterday was just a dream, a new vibe hits the drums,
taste peace and love, today is life,
tomorrow never comes, never comes,
tomorrow never comes.
The rain of parachutes was history,
but war left fang marks in our soul,
so the flower nation set it's goal
to the caves above the sea.
Live was easy, peace was on its way,
and George the fisherman said it all
when he drew the Welcome on the wall
by the sands of Matala bay
Now the trees are gone like the old Mermaid Cafe
where Cat sang vows he never kept
and Joni left while Carey wept
on a hot Calima day.
The Welcome on the wall still tells today
now it's on us to chase for peace
and find love in the evening breeze
on the sands of Matala bay.
