Mavety Street ft. Laila Biali Lyrics

When moonlight stole like guilty cats

And summer owned the air

I kissed your lips on Mavety Street

And tousled your starlit hair

Grave windows on the darkened rows

The abandoned dairy's shell

Cast off their grimy prose of life

And wished two lovers well

The old men in the Balkan Hall

Looked up from losing hands

My love I pledged on Mavety Street

More heart than head or glands

More heart than head or glands

Your tiny flat was heaven's realm

The roof leaked sylvan streams

But you and me together there

Was daylight to my dreams

And moonlight stole the years away

And summers drank the air

I thirst for that kiss on Mavety Street

And the starlight in your hair

The old men in the Balkan Hall

Looked up from losing hands

My love I pledged on Mavety Street

More heart than head or glands

More heart than head or glands

Your tiny flat was heaven's realm

The roof leaked sylvan streams

But you and me together there

Was daylight to my dreams

And moonlight stole the years away

And summers drank the air

I thirst for that kiss on Mavety Street

And the starlight in your hair
