Story behind the song
I was playing for three months in a Cyprus hotel and got into the rhythmic sound of the names of the food on their menus.
Lyrics
Taramasalata Was just a starter made for two And as we dipped our pitta patter went my heart And then somehow I knew Such a sweet sonata Began to play inside my mind With Aphrodite wine the waiter filled my glass Yes this was love at last Fresh haloumi does nothing to me anymore And I'll say no to kleftiko it's such a bore I didn't know our love could grow Until our eyes met in the candleglow No no no No more Greek moussaka The way ahead is more than clear And when you're far away I'm lonely in the night I think taramasalata Pink taramasalata my dear
