Sea And Sand Lyrics

Nothing ever goes as planned,

I just couldn't face going home

It was just a drag on my own.

They finally threw me out

My mother got drunk on stout,

My dad couldn't stand on two feet,

As he lectured about morality.

Now I guess the families complete,

With me hanging round on the street

Or here on the beach.

The girl I love

Is a perfect dresser,

Wears every fashion

Gets it to the tee.

Heavens above,

I got to match her

She knows just how

She wants her man to be

Leave it to me.

My jacket's gonna be cut slim and checked

Maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck

I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat

I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet.

I see her dancing
The Who - Sea And Sand - http://motolyrics.com/the-who/sea-and-sand-lyrics.html
Across the ballroom

UV light making starshine

Of her smile.

I am the face,

She has to know me,

I'm dressed up better than anyone

Within a mile.

So how come the other tickets look much better?

Without a penny to spend they dress to the letter.

How come the girls come on oh so cool

Yet when you meet 'em, every one's a fool?

Come sleep on the beach

Keep within my reach

I just want to die with you near

I'm feeling so high with you here.

I'm wet and I'm cold

But thank God I ain't old

I should have split home at fifteen

Why didn't I ever say what I mean?

There's a story that the grass is so green,

What did I see?

Where have I been?

Nothing is planned, by the sea and the sand

Who Sea And Sand
