[Intro] x2 [Verse 1] Everybody needs a by the sea affair Where you get the urge from something in the air Helter Skelter on a mat Kiss me Quick is on my hat And you do it on the ghost train for a dare [Chorus] Wishing you were here same as every year Cause our summer madness is too short Wishing you were here where the sunshine’s near Is it true that wishes can be bought? [Verse 2] Everybody needs the moonlight on the beach Where the water’s cold and no one hears you screech Getting buried in the sand what you holding in your hand? Let it go or else I’ll keep it out of reach [Chorus] Wishing you were here same as every year Cause our summer madness is too short Wishing you were here where the sunshine’s near Is it true that wishes can be bought? [Middle 8] The last night you dressed to kill Will you write? You say you will Sometimes hopes just drift away [Verse 3] Everybody needs to have a sea romance When the world around just doesn’t stand a chance Candy floss stuck on your nose and your donkey’s name was Rose What’s this cheek to cheek in every single dance? [Chorus] Wishing you were here same as every year Cause our summer madness is too short   Wishing you were here where the sunshine’s near Is it true that wishes can be bought? [Outro] x2
