In idyllic place
Somewhere far away
Somewhere out of town
Where we used to play
Somewhere out of town
Where we used to go
Trying to pretend
All we didn't know

With love in our eyes and in the air
Observed by the world but unaware
Somewhere out of town love flowered in bloom
I tasted the wine of youth and of you

Somewhere out of town
Where we used to swim
Feel the water soft
On our naked skin
Feel the burning sun
Turning us to brown
On a little beach
Somewhere out of town
The sea was so green, and so were you
Your eyes as sky, same summer blue
Your seventeen years were ready and free
I taught you the love, you practiced on me

Somewhere out of town
Where we used to play
The trees became bare
The sea turned to gray
In that little place
The summer had gone
You left me behind
As you travelled on

Somewhere out of time, now time has passed
The season for love returned at last
The girl had to learn, the woman can teach
The one who now waits somewhere on the beach

. . . . . .

The stars rise to greet
The sun going down
As two lovers meet
Somewhere out of town
Somewhere out of town
Somewhere out of town

. . . . . .
