Tommy Steiner - The Fairy Tale of Rhodes 1983 Today the sea is calling me but I'll hold on to you as long as you're still with me. Do you know whether the night, this deep blue night, isn't a farewell for ever and ever? Many are already lying down among a thousand sunken ships laden with gold. The sea has taken them with its magic. Yes, the fairy tale of Rhodes is the ancient legend that is still told around the fire today. Anyone who chooses the sea instead of love is lost forever. And the girls of Rhodes stand crying on the beach and it is the fear that crushes them that their loved one will succumb to the magic and never come back. Today fate has spared me but I feel that this night will be our last. For how quickly the morning comes and with it the day and then you will be alone forever, yes, always. It draws me out in the rain and storm and casts its spell over me. I can't fight it because I'm so weak. Yes, the fairy tale of Rhodes is the ancient legend that is still told around the fire today. Whoever chooses the sea instead of love is lost forever. Just like back then, the sea beckons again. I try to resist it, but it is like a song that draws me helplessly - pulls me. Yes, the fairy tale of Rhodes is the ancient legend that is still told around the fire today. Whoever chooses the sea instead of love is lost forever. And the girls of Rhodes stand crying on the beach and it is the fear that crushes them that their loved one will succumb to the spell.
