I wish I could be Close to you By the sea And I know that you would want to be there too Where the sea is green and the sky is oh so blue We could walk together on the beach, we two We could roll down our socks and kick off both our shoes Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba We can drift on a raft until late afternoon If we stayed a bit longer it would still be far too soon There's an island just there where I'd like to go and hide And when we get tired we can drift back with the tide Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba I'm so glad we came To the seaside In the rain But now It's time to go We drive our car Very slow
