Flocking to the sea
  Crowds of people wait for me
  Sea gulls scavenge
  Steal ice cream
  Worries vanish
  Within my dream
    I left my soul there,
  Down by the sea
  I lost control here
  Living free
    I left my soul there,
  Down by the sea
  I lost control here
  Living free
    Fishing boats sail past the shore
  No singing may-day any more
  The sun is shining
  The Water's clear
  Just you and I walk along the pier
    I left my soul there,
  Down by the sea
  I lost control here
  Living free
    I left my soul there,
  Down by the sea
  I lost control here
  Living free
    A cool breeze flows but mind the wasp
  Some get stung it's worth the cost
  I'd love to stay
  The city calls me home
  More hassles fuss and lies on the phone
    I left my soul there,
  Down by the sea
  I lost control here
  Living free
    I left my soul there,
  Down by the sea
  I lost control here
  Living free
    I left my soul there,
  Down by the sea
  I lost control here
  Living free
    I left my soul there,
  Down by the sea
  I lost control with you,
  And living, living,
  And I, living, by the sea
