Song Mykonos by Fleet Foxes

The Song Mykonos by Fleet Foxes: Mykonos, the lovely and cosmopolitan Greek island, has not only charmed visitors with its beauty but has also been the source of inspiration for many artists.

The song "Mykonos", released by the Seattle-based, baroque harmonic folk band Fleet Foxes in 2008, is proof of that. This beautiful song that has been called "salvation to the ears" by Billboard magazine goes as follows:

The door slammed loud and rose up a cloud of dust on us
Footsteps follow, down through the hollow sound, torn up.

And you will go to Mykonos
With a vision of a gentle coast
And a sun to maybe dissipate
Shadows of the mess you made
How did animals in the snow-tipped pines, I find
Hatching from the seed of your thin mind, all night?

And you will go to Mykonos
With a vision of a gentle coast
And a sun to maybe dissipate
Shadows of the mess you made

Brother you don't need to turn me away
I was waiting down at the ancient gate

You go
Wherever you go today
You go today

I remember how they took you down
As the winter turned the meadow brown

You go
Wherever you go today
You go today

When a-walking brother don't you forget
It ain't often that you'll ever find a friend

You go
Wherever you go today
You go today
