Lyrics

The beaches are bare – all the tourists have flown away
Back to their daily 9 to 5
I’m glad I’m not there – slaving every boring day
But soon enough I will say goodbye
Summer came and went so fast this year
Faster than I care to know
Wish I could stay another day – a week, or so,
But there’s one more sunset till I go

The streets have all cleared – no more traffic jams at noon
We’ve got plenty of rooms in this hotel
The temps disappeared like the winds across the dunes
Bidding their summer jobs farewell
They’ll be back someday when winter warms
Seeking work along the row
And they will stay, collect their pay, three months or so,
But there’s one more sunset till I go

I’ll return one day a battered soul
To my cozy bungalow
Then I will stay a thousand days, a life, or so
But there’s one more sunset till I go
There’s one more sunset till I go
There’s one more sunset
