Lyrics Michael Franks – Barefoot On The Beach
Text:
Barefoot on the beach
Warmed by the subtropic sun
Easily seduced — I’m in
Safely out of reach
From faxes and the telephone
I get happy when
A dolphin joins me for a swim
I get happy when
A dolphin joins me for a swim
My Captiva Island hideaway
Isn’t complete
Not without you — what about you?
You could jump a DC-8 and
Probably be here by eight
My Captiva Island bungalow’s
Perfect for two
No attire is required
Just a toothbrush, dear
‘Cause here we don’t wear much
Barefoot on the beach
The Gulf invites me to get wet
Is it green or blue? I’m in
Perfect as a peach
Please send yourself to me by jet
Make me happy when
Your flight arrives and we dive in
