Sally wake up you don't have to pretend anymore
'Cause while you were sleeping I drove us to someplace the weather will always be warm
We can go outside and bury our faces in the sun
There's no need to worry 'cause no one will ask us where it is that we came from
We can walk on Main Street, dance in these honky tonk bars
No one will know who we are
Well you like the water so much you could be a fish
We're right by the ocean so you can go dipping any old time that you wish
We'll watch the sunset, make love in the old lifeguard stand
When the setting is done and we've lost the sun we will nap on a blanket upstairs
We can walk on water, dance in the light of the moon
Honey, just me and you
We'll wake to a restaurant with fancy napkins and plates
We'll watch the old man as he walks to the big white piano and sits down and plays
The maitre d' calls me lucky as he pours our wine
What a beautiful girl and I know in this world that the good ones are so hard to find
We can walk on red carpet, dance to our favorite songs
We can stay all night long
Sally wake up, you don't have to pretend any more
'Cause while you were sleeping I drove us to someplace the weather will always be warm
