Marine Girls - A Place in the Sun

Working the remote this evening, I happened upon a BBC Four programme..., 

More Punk and New Wave Compiled .

At the time, I was reasonably aware of what was around, but both this song, and the band...., new to me.  As yet another Covid-19 lockdown gathers pace, a bit of cheer.....

Imagine a sunny holiday

A parasolled cafe

Corner table for two
And that is me and you

 

Barefoot by the shore
A drink with ice and two straws
Sun in the cloudless sky
You wave as the girls go by

 

Take a boat out for a while
You row and I lie back in style
We'll reach the other side, you say
But we never get halfway

 

When the evening comes around
We'll stroll through a lamp-lit little town
Miles and miles from home
Happy to be on our own

Nothing I would rather do
All I want is a place in the sun, and you
Nothing I would rather do
All I want is a place in the sun, and you…
