After Dinner, Before Karaoke

 "The Waves" by Wang Chung

Working at your job all day

Sends the time spinning away

Watch tv from half past six

Cook, make love and pick up sticks

But you can hear the waves crash on the beach

At night

Books you read can sublimate

Music seems to dissipate

And maybe just a bottle of wine

And a couple of smokes and you'll be fine

But you still hear the waves crash on the beach

At night

You can feel the waves crash on the beach

At night

Your lover lies beside you fast asleep

The moonlight falls upon the tears you weep

And you can hear the waves crash on the beach

At night oh at night

So all you really need is love

Love to give, receive above

And then the waves will soothe your heart

Your one true love will never part

True love (is the answer to everything

True love is the answer true love is the thing)

True love (is the answer to everything

True love is the answer true love is the thing)

And we will lie together both asleep

The moonlight will provide the tears we weep

And as we breathe the waves crash on the beach

At night

And as we breathe the waves crash on the beach

At night

I'm not sure how many more summers I have here. This could be the last. You can't know how much I want to share this place with you. You can't know. "It's just one more summer without you."
