Hey nice to meet you
What's your name?
I saw you walkin' up my way girl
Oh maybe we could spend the day
We could lay my jacket out on the sand
And do something

I'm sorry girl but have we met before?
It's not something that I'd forget
Come on baby, take my hand
Let's do something

'Cause sun is setting soon
Honey honey

And when the sun comes up tomorrow
