00:00:00.570 --> 00:00:03.000 align:middle line:84%
"Remember how close
we sat in Sifnos,

00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:05.250 align:middle line:90%
having dinner by the water?

00:00:05.250 --> 00:00:09.450 align:middle line:84%
You said, in your country once,
you put the table in the water.

00:00:09.450 --> 00:00:12.188 align:middle line:84%
You began the meal, and
then what a great idea

00:00:12.188 --> 00:00:13.230 align:middle line:90%
to move it over a little.

00:00:13.230 --> 00:00:14.070 align:middle line:90%
It would cool you.

00:00:14.070 --> 00:00:15.750 align:middle line:90%
It was that calm.

00:00:15.750 --> 00:00:17.490 align:middle line:84%
You rolled your
pants to the knee

00:00:17.490 --> 00:00:22.200 align:middle line:84%
and poured drinks all around,
the fish bones back to the sea.

00:00:22.200 --> 00:00:25.800 align:middle line:84%
Lizards climb the stone
outside the kitchen by the sea.

00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:28.560 align:middle line:84%
Weeds and flowers
grow out of the stone.

00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:31.410 align:middle line:84%
The relatives spill
out of the kitchen.

00:00:31.410 --> 00:00:34.290 align:middle line:84%
The daughter is well
educated or about to be.

00:00:34.290 --> 00:00:38.130 align:middle line:84%
She serves us with the happy
face of one who is leaving.

00:00:38.130 --> 00:00:40.110 align:middle line:84%
You lifted your
skirt, walking home

00:00:40.110 --> 00:00:42.570 align:middle line:84%
in the dark over
the pebbles to sit.

00:00:42.570 --> 00:00:45.150 align:middle line:84%
One night, we saw the
only other lovers.

00:00:45.150 --> 00:00:48.750 align:middle line:84%
They were both fair,
she blonde and he gray.

00:00:48.750 --> 00:00:52.110 align:middle line:84%
And their eyes moved only
to each other and the sea,

00:00:52.110 --> 00:00:54.670 align:middle line:90%
these two destinations.

00:00:54.670 --> 00:00:57.270 align:middle line:84%
Now, the sea once in a
while slips a wave up

00:00:57.270 --> 00:01:01.390 align:middle line:84%
to their feet because a boat
passes or for no reason.

00:01:01.390 --> 00:01:05.420 align:middle line:84%
Now, the yellow moon divides
the sea into fields."
