Days of barefoot freedom racing with the waves

Nights of starlit secrets Crackling driftwood flames

Drinking by the lighthouse Smoking on the pier

Still we saw the magic was fading every year

Sitting in the sand to watch the fireworks display
D                          G               C
Dancing fires on the beach singing songs together…

Though it’s just a memory some memories last forever
