I knew I could never hold that girl She was born to see the world All I got is a picture she mailed me Barefoot in the snow-white sand Bag of seashells in her hand She finally found a paradise, it seems On the coast of somewhere beautiful Trade winds blowing through her hair Sunlight dancing on the water And I wish I was there Don't know how I'm gonna find her And all I know so far She's on the coast of somewhere beautiful Running with my heart Sometimes when the sun goes down Shadows fall across this little town And I close my eyes and I drift away To another place and another time When the world was ours and she was mine I dream of holding her again some day On the coast of somewhere beautiful Trade winds blowing through her hair Sunlight dancing on the water And I wish I was there Don't know how I'm gonna find her And all I know so far She's on the coast of somewhere beautiful Running with my heart Don't know how I'm gonna find her And all I know so far She's on the coast of somewhere beautiful Running with my heart Oh! She's running With my heart On the coast of somewhere beautiful
