Lyrics
When the sand's close at hand and the sea is touching me
I feel much happier
Than I've ever felt
And a long time goes by and I'm floating in the sky
And I wish you could be
Wish you could be
Wish you could be here
And if you're free follow me, throw a pebble in my sea
The sun will wrap you up
In a pool of gold and lights in the night
Reaching neon waves of sight
But I wish you could be
Wish you could be
Wish you could be here
The sun, the sand, the sea are waiting on the corner
Take a trip out here
Hustle, bustle, shove and fuss
Will greet you if you stay there
I'm without a care
Fresh fruit and sea fish are in abundance here
But they don't allow
The natives at your door selling booze
Smuggled from another shore
And I wish you could be
Wish you could be
Wish you could be here
The sun, the sand, the sea are waiting on the corner
Take a trip out here
Hustle, bustle, shove and fuss
Will greet you if you stay there
I'm without a care
Fresh fruit and sea fish are in abundance here
But they don't allow
The natives at your door selling booze
Smuggled from another shore
And I wish you could be
Wish you could be
Wish you could be here
