Let's drive out to the west coast
Before the leaves turn brown
We'll be dreaming of forever

As we watch the sun go down

We can walk along the beaches

And swim out in the sea
As the water splashes around us
I'll see you looking back at me


When I think of you and me
The light starts coming back

And I see the stars are shining in the black

Once I thought I knew love

But I left it all behind
And I think that if we found it
I wouldn't really mind


So forget about the city
And all the things we know

Forget about our troubles
And see the love around us grow


When I think of you and me
The light starts coming back
And I see the stars are shining in the black
