Verse 1
Mint leaves crushed in a silver cup
Watch the coastal breeze pick the linen up
Mosaic blue on the terrace floor
Left our heavy shoes by the cedar door
Orange blossom thick in the evening heat
Distant rhythm rising from the market street
Pre-Chorus
Tell me who we were before tonight
Spinning in the halo of the lantern light
Chorus
Caught inside the Tangier midnight heat
Two bare shadows in the alley street
Salt on your shoulder, cedar in the air
Wild and young with not a single care
Caught inside the Tangier midnight heat
Verse 2
Copper tray balanced on the stone settee
Looking past the harbour to the open sea
Strings of a lute from the courtyard low
Striking up a pulse that we already know
You pull me in with a reckless grin
Letting all the magic of the summer win
Pre-Chorus
Tell me who we were before tonight
Spinning in the halo of the lantern light
Chorus
Caught inside the Tangier midnight heat
Two bare shadows in the alley street
Salt on your shoulder, cedar in the air
Wild and young with not a single care
Caught inside the Tangier midnight heat
Bridge
Let the tide roll in, let the bells chime slow
We got hours before the dark lets go
No yesterday pulling on our sleeve
Just a summer night that makes us both believe
Chorus
Caught inside the Tangier midnight heat
Two bare shadows in the alley street
Salt on your shoulder, cedar in the air
Wild and young with not a single care
Caught inside the Tangier midnight heat
