 Between the eyes of love I call your name

 Down on the beach
 The secrets of the summer I will keep
 The sands of time will blow a mystery
 No-one but you and I
 Underneath that moonlit sky
 Take me back to the place that I know
 On the beach
 Down on the beach
 Forever in my dreams I will be

 Hanging on to this sweet memory
A  day of strange desire
 And a night  that burned like fire
 Take me back  to the place  that I know
-10
 On the beach
Down  on the beach
