Menemsha
Peter's on the loose
I'd like to see him again
I remember when
We made love
On the jetty in the rain
When the fishing boats would
Come back in
At the end of the day
He'd run up the hill to my cabin
With a swordfish and he'd say:
"Girl I want you all over again"'
All over again
In Menemsha, Menemsha
Menemsha, Menemsha
The sunset on the sound
Was almost too much to take
We would dance on the hill
With our friends
'Til the morning would break
Everybody drank too much beer
In those days
Thank God it wasn't whisky
Or we'd all be dead
And Peter and me we'd pull the shades
Everyone was interested
In Peter and me
In Menemsha, Menemsha
Menemsha, Menemsha
Menemsha
Peter tá solto
Queria ver ele de novo
Lembro quando
A gente se amou
Na ponte na chuva
Quando os barcos de pesca
Voltavam pra casa
No final do dia
Ele corria morro acima pra minha cabana
Com um peixe-espada e dizia:
"Menina, eu quero você de novo"
De novo
Em Menemsha, Menemsha
Menemsha, Menemsha
O pôr do sol no som
Era quase demais pra aguentar
A gente dançava na colina
Com nossos amigos
Até o dia clarear
Todo mundo bebia cerveja demais
Naqueles dias
Graças a Deus não era whisky
Ou a gente já tinha morrido
E eu e o Peter a gente fechava as cortinas
Todo mundo tava interessado
Em mim e no Peter
Em Menemsha, Menemsha
Menemsha, Menemsha
