Angeli - Adonis lyrics

I met Adonis just recently

On a starry night, we walked by the sea

Right out of a book of Greek gods and myths

In the guise of a man here against his will

I said now (she said)

Heavenly creature, can you feel

Pain and emotions, are you for real

A goddess or angel I might not seem

But I can love you more than any human will (Yeah, right)

He took me then in his arms

And I melted like ice in the sun

Palm trees were swaying and the wind sang a crazy love song

Then he pulled away from me, I was speechless as a fool could be

And I realised that I was only human indeed

(She couldn't help it!)

Don't imagine me a silly Earth fool

I'm tongue-tied and nervous, I appear unschooled

Cos my hormones are churning, they're drowning out my head

Many a thing would have been better unsaid

He took me then in his arms

And I melted like ice in the sun

Palm trees were swaying and the wind sang a crazy love song

He's afraid of loving me, and he thinks I'm not quite his size

Maybe some cruel goddess left him alone in the night (in the night)

In the night (that's right)

My Adonis has flown away

He didn't even give me the night of a day

The sun is gone and I see no more stars

All I see is the planet Mars

He took me then in his arms

And I melted like ice in the sun

Palm trees were swaying and the wind sang a crazy love song

He's afraid of loving me, and he thinks I'm not quite his size

Maybe some cruel goddess left him alone in the night (in the night)

In the night now

I hear it raining outside my door

I wonder if he'll be back once more

Right out of a book of Greek gods and myths

In the guise of a man here against his will
