Golden skin, salt in the air I’m lost in the heat, but I don’t care The island’s breathing, the rhythm is deep Promises made that we probably won’t keep I see you dancing, a silhouette in the sand You’re the local queen of this nameless land I don’t know your name, I don’t know your street But the sun is high, and the world is sweet Summer souls, we’re burning bright Acting our best in the neon light You’re my holiday high, my tropical dream Everything’s better than it’s ever been Passionate nights, wild and free Just for a moment, it’s you and me Your lips are moving, I don't know the words The prettiest sounds I’ve ever heard I speak with my hands, I touch your skin Where does the fantasy end and the truth begin? No dictionary needed for the way we feel In this humid haze, it feels so real A week of magic, a lifetime of grace Lost in the curves of your beautiful face The suitcase is packed, the taxi is here I whisper "I’ll write" in your sun-kissed ear I’ll call you tomorrow, I’ll never let go But we both know how the story goes... Back at home, the grey and the rain The heat of the island starts to wane Your number’s a ghost in my contact list Just another girl that I used to kiss The feelings fade like a holiday tan I’m back to being a sensible man... Until the winter starts to bite Yeah, I’m browsing the flights, I’m checking the map Falling back into the summer trap New country, new sun, a brand new start Ready to break another "forever" heart On to the next one... On to the next "big love".
