lyrics

Waking up in the early morning
To sail away on a tidal wave
But there’s so much I want to do
And there’s so much I want to see
We could travel the world, sweet darling
We’d be starting a whole new life
For as long as I am with you
Then you know there is nothing to fear

I’m going to find us a place in the sun
We’ll dream our dreams and forget about tomorrow
Nothing will be the same
The best of all is yet to come
We’ll spend the rest of our days in a place in the sun
A place in the sun

We could climb up the social ladder
And pretend that we’d be all right
But there’s so much more to be done
And there’s so much to be seen
If you say, “Better safe than sorry”
“Think again” will be my reply
For as long as I am with you
Then you know there is nothing to fear

I’m going to find us a place in the sun
We’ll dream our dreams and forget about tomorrow
Nothing will be the same
The best of all is yet to come
We’ll spend the rest of our days in a place in the sun
A place in the sun

Confusion is making me ill
I’d much rather live like the fool on the hill
And take one day at a time at my own pace
My thoughts are drifting away
I need more time, I’m sorry to say
I’ve lost the will to keep up with this rat race

I’m going to find us a place in the sun
We’ll dream our dreams and forget about tomorrow
Nothing will be the same
The best of all is yet to come
We’ll spend the rest of our days in a place in the sun
A place in the sun
A place in the sun
A place in the sun
