don’t go to the beach today
i know you want to see the sun
but i’ve begun to notice that you’re
always running away

don’t go to the beach today
i know you crave the salty wind
but i’ll remind you once again
that this is how it always ends

and long story short
you’ve got to stay and work this out with me
and long story short
if you leave now
it’ll never be the same

and maybe i should just recede
maybe you just wanna be free
free just like the sea

boy, that sure would explain
your fear of being mundane
i wouldn’t sing this song if
it was something i could contain

you and I will never be the same
you and I will never be the same…
