I Need the Sun

I wanna go somewhere where the weather's warm
Where the grey clouds don't gather for the cold rain storm
To lie out on some sandy beach
Somewhere exotic, far out of reach
Oh, oh, oh I need the sun
Oh, oh, oh I need the sun
Oh, oh, oh I need the sun
to shine on me We could take a plane, it wouldn't be much
I got to leave this city, get out of its clutch
o where the clear air is warm and sweet
Where the ground's so hot it burns the soles of your feet
Oh, oh, oh I need the sun... etc Won't you please come with me
Don't you need a break
Leave your work and cares behind
Oh, for your whole self's sake A tropical island by a peaceful lagoon
With the sea like crystal on a hazy afternoon
No sound of traffic, just the waves on the shore
And the sweet birds singing - who could ask for more?
Oh, oh, oh I need the sun... etc
