lyrics:
hip hip
hip hip
when you're on a holiday
you can't find the words to say
all the things that come to you
and I wanna feel it to
on an island in the sun,
we'll be playin' and havin' fun
and it makes me feel so fine I can't control my brain
hip hip
hip hip
when you're on a golden sea
you don't need no memory
just a place to call your own
as we drift into the zone
on an island in the sun,
we'll be playin' and havin' fun
and it makes me feel so fine I can't control my brain
we'll run away together
we'll spend some time forever
we'll never feel bad anymore
