I watched the show Classic Albums on Disraeli Gears and the guy, Martin Sharp, listed in the linear notes was the one who wrote the lyrics. He said,
"I used to live in the islands of the Med. Sea and when I moved back to London I missed it so I wrote these lyrics about it."
And Clapton was at a bar and they talked and he gave him the lyrics. Then made the cover work. So that's what the guy said about it.
