Foreign Affair Lyrics

Foreign affair.
Take a trip in the air
To a tropical beach,
An island to reach.
A new territory
For an intimate story,
A lagoon by la mer.
It's a foreign affair.


Drifting and free
On a mystical sea.
A wishful emotion,
A drop in the ocean.
A hush in the air
You can feel anywhere
In the cool twilight
On a tropical night.


[ Chorus ]

Floating on air.
Foreign affair.
A magical potion,
A cool locomotion.
A dream,
A prayer.
(It's a foreign affair!)

Cover art for Foreign Affair lyrics by Mike Oldfield

Very simply structured and repetitive, but catchy and evocative, with that hypnotic feel brought by the vibraphones. A very good compliment for darker songs on 'Crises'.
