Wasn't so long ago
|
That every year your family
|
Would rent a house from June to Labor Day
|
Summer in Monterey
|
None of us wore no clothes
|
In Monterey our feet were bare
|
Our shorts were all we'd ever wear
|
And I would jump for joy that you were there
|
|
Take you to the movie show
|
Watching arm in arm
|
Used to hope the film would work its charm
|
Then
|
You and I we'd saunter home
|
Far behind the crowd
|
Linger longer than your ma and pa had allowed
|
|
Never in love before
|
We couldn't wait to be alone
|
To beat it to the Ocean View Cafe
|
That was our hideaway
|
Summer in Monterey
|
|
Monterey oh Monterey
|
Monterey oh Monterey
|
I would love the crazy world to always stay that way
|
Ocean breeze
|
Breaking seas
|
Out on the rocks around the windy curving bay
|
Summer in Monterey
|
|
Ocean breeze
|
Breaking seas
|
Out on the rocks around the windy curving bay
|
Summer in Monterey
|
