He was just a friend of mine<br /> I'd run in to from time to time<br /> And long before he moved away<br /> We used to share a taste for wineStill I never knew that he was sad back then<br /> He said, the time had come, for him, to take a holidayAnd he says it's brilliant there<br /> There's something in the air<br /> And sunshine everywhere<br /> He's on the beachI know he's changed somehow, he sends us postcards now<br /> I'm not sure where he is, but he is out of reachWhen he called me up one day<br /> And said that he was going away<br /> I thought he meant a week in France<br /> And not 12,000 miles to Sydney BayStill he had to take his chances<br /> He said, the time had come for him to make a move awayAnd he says it's brilliant there<br /> There's something in the air<br /> And sunshine everywhere<br /> He's on the beachI know he's changed somehow, he writes us postcards now<br /> He's on his own again and he is out of reach<br /> (I bet he gets it on the beach)And I don't blame him<br /> Leaving was the best thing he could do<br /> He longed for changes<br /> I just hope he's happy when he does the things he thinks he has to doAnd he tries, and he tries, yes he tries<br /> But he's a little bit hard on himself<br /> So now he's trying to be someone elseAnd he says, he says, he says it's brilliant there<br /> There's something in the air<br /> And sunshine everywhere<br /> He's on the beachI know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now<br /> He's on his own again, so far out of reachAnd he says it's brilliant there<br /> There's something in the air<br /> And sunshine everywhere<br /> He's on the beachI know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now<br /> He's in Australia, so far out of reach<br /> And he says it's brilliant there<br /> <br /> Songwriters<br /> KIRSTY MACCOLL, GAVIN POVEYPublished by<br /> Lyrics © BMG RIGHTS MANAGEMENT US, LLCLyrics provided by TANCODEhttps://damnlyrics.com/" readonly=""/>

He's On the Beach (12" Mix) Lyrics


He was just a friend of mine
I'd run in to from time to time
And long before he moved away
We used to share a taste for wineStill I never knew that he was sad back then
He said, the time had come, for him, to take a holidayAnd he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beachI know he's changed somehow, he sends us postcards now
I'm not sure where he is, but he is out of reachWhen he called me up one day
And said that he was going away
I thought he meant a week in France
And not 12,000 miles to Sydney BayStill he had to take his chances
He said, the time had come for him to make a move awayAnd he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beachI know he's changed somehow, he writes us postcards now
He's on his own again and he is out of reach
(I bet he gets it on the beach)And I don't blame him

Leaving was the best thing he could do
He longed for changes
I just hope he's happy when he does the things he thinks he has to doAnd he tries, and he tries, yes he tries
But he's a little bit hard on himself
So now he's trying to be someone elseAnd he says, he says, he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beachI know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now
He's on his own again, so far out of reachAnd he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beachI know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now
He's in Australia, so far out of reach
And he says it's brilliant there
