Lyrics (unofficial)

Let the black sail fill full of wind
The keel that rushes through the surf
Dolphins leaping by the prow
How I long to see you
How I long to see you, Ephegenia

Ahhh!
Mmmm

Then let the morning cut like steel
Open up this time and glide right in
The squid and the shell
The oar and the bell
Well I remember
Well I remember
I remember this land

And it was summer
And it was summer
Life was sweet
Love was grand, Ephegenia
(Love was grand, Ephegenia)

[Faint Female Voice]
It was summer
Life was sweet
Love was grand
Life was sweet
Love was grand
I remember this land
Love was grand
Summer
Love was grand
