Steve Harley - The Coast Of Amalfi lyrics

Harley Light shone with a breath-taking energy Boats bobbin' on the waterline Dusk settled but the flies didn't bother me I was high on the Coast of Amalfi. We sailed Positano to Capri Sat watching things unfold Drank shots in the shadow of Napoli Getting high on the Coast of Amalfi. Scaled hills on the Island of Ischia Seeking shelter from the sun Pretty girls, pretty boys blow a kiss to her She got high on the Coast of Amalfi. Bought leather on the streets of Sorrento Bartered goods without shame In a dream I took a hold, didn't let it go Life was high on the Coast of Amalfi. I dreamed I was lost in the history Pompei in all its glory Life's home was a romantic mystery Rome fell on the Coast of Amalfi. Sailed off in a ship full of lightermen Just flattered to deceive I was sad, I was sad at the sight of them I got sad on the Coast of Amalfi. In that light you can see with a clarity Many faults in your life Fate smiles on the good and their charity I got saved on the Coast of Amalfi. My dream held this picture of beauty My dream showed this breath-taking load My dream had the quality of mercy My dream had the patience of Job My dream had this elegance and wonder My dream paid the debts that I owed I was high on the Coast of Amalfi I was high on the Coast of Amalfi.
