She went to the store
A quarter after nine
Picked out a brand new soul
And bought it for a dime
She knew
It was what she had to do
That night
She drives around
Lost behind the wheel
Even though she knows
Exactly where she is
She'll have to learn
Which way she must turn
In the end
She turns her hopeful eyes
Up to the night sky
And I say
Ooo, it's about time
Ooo, to show that I
To show that I'd do anything
To keep her only mine
Ooo, just her and me
Ooo, down by the sea
Hand in hand standing on the beach
Or maybe in our dreams
And that might be the only place
Where we can truly be truly free
She went to the show
An hour after nine
And overhead the bright lights shine
To try to make her blind
So she
Could not see
The truth in all the lies
That she finds
She knows she's missing
Something that she needs
And I say
Ooo, it's about time
Ooo, to show that I
To show that I'd do anything
To keep her only mine
Ooo, just her and me
Ooo, down by the sea
Hand in hand standing on the beach
Or maybe in our dreams
And that might be the only place
Where we can truly be truly free
Truly free
Truly free
And each day I'm waking
It feels like I'm breaking
'Cause my heart is aching to be
All hers for the taking
I wish I was making her see
I'm what she needs
And she says
Ooo, it's about time
Ooo, to tell you I
Know that you'd do anything
To be the only one in my life
Ooo, just you and me
Ooo, down by the sea
Your hand in mine on the beach
Is always in my dreams
And you are all that keeps these dreams
From bursting at the seams
And they might be the only place
Where we can truly be
Truly free for you and me
To make the whole world see
You belong with me
You belong with me
You belong with me
And we'll truly be
Truly be
Truly free
