Girls on the Beaches of the World

Lyrics: Girls on the Beaches of the World

Sha-la-la, sha-la-la Ooh, girls on the beaches of the world Sha-la-la, sha-la-la Hand in hand with my favorite girl Met her where the blue waves roll Underneath a striped umbrella pole She smiled at me, I smiled right back Now our footprints make a two-girl track She tied her scarf and winked my way Said, baby, let’s run into the bay The radio played, the sun hung high And love went dancing across the sky Girls on the beaches of the world Spinning around with their favorite girls From Rio sand to the Riviera blue Every little wave says I love you Girls on the beaches, laughing free Kissing the sunshine, splashing the sea No more hiding, no more lonely nights Just happy hearts in the summer light In Hawaii we were ankle deep Splashing so hard we forgot to sleep In California with the radio on We brushed out the sand till the day was gone On a Greek island, white walls gleam She held my hand like a movie dream In Italy we built castles of sand Then she stole my shell and she stole my hand Girls on the beaches of the world Spinning around with their favorite girls From Rio sand to the Riviera blue Every little wave says I love you Girls on the beaches, laughing free Kissing the sunshine, splashing the sea No more hiding, no more lonely nights Just happy hearts in the summer light Mama said, be careful in the sun But she never said love could be this fun Papa said, come home by ten But we missed the train and we laughed again Clap your hands now, one, two, three My girl’s got sunscreen all over me She says, honey, don’t you run away I said, baby, I was born to stay Pack a towel and a picnic tin Put your cat-eye sunglasses on again Every shore from near to far Knows exactly who we are Two girls dancing by the foam Every beach feels just like home The whole wide world can watch us shine Her hand in mine and mine in mine Girls on the beaches of the world Spinning around with their favorite girls From Rio sand to the Riviera blue Every little wave says I love you Girls on the beaches, laughing free Kissing the sunshine, splashing the sea No more hiding, no more lonely nights Just happy hearts in the summer light Sha-la-la, sha-la-la Girls on the beaches of the world Sha-la-la, sha-la-la Every girl with her favorite girl Sha-la-la, sha-la-la Sunshine, waves, and love unfurled Sha-la-la, sha-la-la Girls on the beaches of the world
