This is a poem/song I wrote in 2005. It was inspired by the name and the view of a restaurant on the island of Skiathos in Greece. I was trying to connect with the space between consciousness and sleep, that space when thoughts drift without any idea of rationality, when words just connect with each other and everything makes sense! I composed a backing that I recently rediscovered and will record it again!
The first time that I saw you
I was dressed in black.
The last time that I saw you
You said you won’t be back.
Oh Infinity Blue
There were times
When I thought I could be with you
To be a real lover
And always be true.
Oh Infinity Blue
The angels came down once
And they spoke to me.
They gave me a message
That would set me free.
Oh Infinity Blue
The sun it was setting
It set in the east.
And somewhere inside me
It unleashed the beast.
Oh Infinity Blue
I walked through the centre line
Of what’s right and wrong.
And I tried to find freedom
In the words of a song!
Oh Infinity Blue
The words they controlled me
They forced me to stand.
When I was lost at sea
They showed me the land.
Oh Infinity Blue
And as I was waiting
For wisdom to come.
The words came and showed me
The warmth of the Sun.
Oh Infinity Blue
Between what is lost
And what cannot be
The words are like diamonds,
The words set you free.
Oh Infinity Blue
I was looking for mercy
I was looking for love
The words they came to me
Like a snowy white dove.
Oh Infinity Blue
I looked in your eyes
And I found mystery
And love, peace and mercy
Was our destiny!
Oh Infinity Blue
