Down to the beach

Down to the beach

Down to the beach

On a sunny day we go

Beach bags packed with sun screen lotions

Hands rubbing people’s backs in slow motion

Glistening oily bodies radiating with sensation

Down to the beach

Down to the beach

Where a chilly sea breeze blows

Let’s have some fun

In the red-hot sun

Down to the beach

As never-ceasing waves play across the shores

People happily play dreading any rainy downpour

Down to the beach

Where young lovers closely nestle

As sand creatures cause the sand to bristle

Seagulls gliding in the air with screams and whistles

Kids picking up shells and building stormy sand castles

Down to the beach

Where mostly good vibes flow

Down to the beach

We go whilst there is still sun without snow
