Frank Turner - Little Aphrodite lyrics
[Frank Turner - Little Aphrodite lyrics]
You brushed past my arm at the bar
And suddenly it was like somebody somewhere
Scraped their keys down the side of my heart
A heart that had been stuck in traffic
At some interminably unchanging red light
You beckoned me off down a side street
And welcomed me into the night
You're wary and you're wise like Athena
Like Artemis, you're wild and you're free
You carry yourself like you're Hera
But quietly you'll always be
Little Aphrodite to me
Now, I remember the first night I met you
How could I ever forget?
You were trading my drinks
For across-the bar winks
Like a rumour that I hadn't heard yet
And I stumbled into you outside
I said I was sorry
But that was kind of a lie
I'd been waiting for you
And I knew that you knew
But, you still laughed
You still acted surprised
And it's faintly ridiculous for me
To be saying I'm sure
But, if I had an apple to give
Then it would be yours
And the others would rage as
I turned them away
But, you'd follow me down to the shore
For you I'd start a war
So baby, yes, I'm sure
