She sits alongside him on sand,
They sit together, hand in hand.
The ocean sings to them: a song,
It feels like nothing could go wrong.
The sun is shining on their heads,
They lie on blankets, worn-down threads.
Their cheeks are red and eyes are shut,
They wish this scene would just stay put.
A summer day and summer dream,
Too good to be what it might seem.
Yes, it will end, and leave somewhere,
But they'll look back, it will be there.
