Agadir (Berber: Agadir, ⴰⴳⴰⴷⵉⵔ, Moroccan Arabic: أڭادير) is a major city in southwest Morocco, capital of the Agadir province (MA-AGD) and the Sous-Massa-Draa economic region. A majority of its inhabitants speak Berber as a mother tongue.
The word Agadir means in Berber "wall, masoned wall enclosing a town, fortress, town".
Agadir has a population of 678,596 (2004; census figures for the agglomeration include the nearby cities of Inezgane and Aït Melloul). The population of the city proper is estimated at 200,000. The mild winter climate (January average midday temperature 20.5°C/69°F) and good beaches have made it a major "winter sun" destination for Northern Europeans. The mayor is Tariq Kabbaj.
The city is located on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean, near the foot of the Atlas Mountains, just north of the point where the Souss River flows into the ocean.
Agadir is an important fishing and commercial port, the first sardine port in the world, (exporting cobalt, manganese, zinc and citrus).It is also a seaside resort with a long sandy beach. Because of its large buildings, wide roads, modern hotels, and European-style cafés, Agadir is not a typical city of traditional Morocco, but it is a modern, busy and dynamic town.
Without you, without you
Thenights are long, cold dark
Without you, without you, I'm yearning
Foryour sinful touch
Far away we will find our own way
In decay we will fade into the light
I know you're always with me
Together just you and me
I know you're right beside me
The Ghost Within Me
I know you're always near me
Forever we will always be
I feel deep inside of me
The Ghost Within my Heart
Without you, without you, I feel so empty inside
Without you, without you, I walk into the endless
Night
Far away we will find our own way
In decay we will fade into the light
I know you're always with me
Together just you and me
I know you're right beside me
The Ghost Within Me
I know you're always near me
Forever we will always be
I feel deep inside of me
The Ghost Within my Heart
Far away from the lives we used to know
