[Verse 1]
You caught me by the harbor wall
Blue boats rocking, paint chips fall
Salt on your skin, warm morning air
I said your name and you were there
[Pre-Chorus]
Stone steps glow in the heat
Your hand found mine by the quay
Old town breath, sea glass shine
I knew that smile was mine
[Chorus]
Malta, Malta, hold me close
Malta, Malta, let me go
Sun on my face
Your kiss like gold
Malta, Malta, take me home
(Malta, Malta)
[Verse 2]
Late lunch tables, lemon plates
Kids running wild through narrow lanes
You laughed so hard at my bad Spanish
I swear the whole square vanished
[Pre-Chorus]
Windows open, white lace sway
Your shadow crossed the alleyway
Old town breath, sea glass shine
I knew that smile was mine
[Chorus]
Malta, Malta, hold me close
Malta, Malta, let me go
Sun on my face
Your kiss like gold
Malta, Malta, take me home
(Malta, Malta)
[Bridge]
Meet me where the ferries turn
Let the long waves keep our words
If I leave, I’ll come back fast
For the way you make time pass
[Final Chorus]
Malta, Malta, hold me close
Malta, Malta, let me go
Sun on my face
Your kiss like gold
Malta, Malta, take me home
(Malta, Malta)
