There will be dancing

Copyright George Papavgeris, Apr 2004

There will be dancing, kissing and romancing
There will be music and the fire bright will burn
There will be singing, bells they will be ringing
Just be there waiting on the quay when I return

The boat is loaded to the gunnels with the harvest
Tight as a fist they are, and bigger than a tree
And with the biggest of them all this time I am blessed
It took me more than half an hour to cut it free
Already I can hear the sound of celebration
As wives and mothers sons and husbands come to greet
And as you're looking on full of anticipation
I'll throw the biggest of the sponges at your feet.

There will be dancing, kissing and romancing...

The sun is setting now, the sponges shining yellow
Gold of the sea will make us richer for a while
The bottle's passing round and everyone is mellow
And even on the captain's lips there is a smile
Two boats behind us, you can hear the sound of wailing
One diver waited far too long and got the bends
And as their boat now like a coffin home is sailing
The sound of mourning with the songs and laughter blends

There will be dancing, kissing and romancing...

And if you're waiting there for me, this thing I promise
And pray my offer that you'll readily accept
You'll be my Venus and I will be your Adonis (Antonis? little Greek pun here!)
And this the last night on a boat I will have slept.

There will be dancing, kissing and romancing...
