I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
He knows where he's taking me
Taking me where I want to be
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
Promises me I'm as safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers
I hope he never lets me down again
Never let me down
See the stars they're shining bright
Everything's alright tonight
Living in the city can be tough on you.
Got to get away once in a while.
Hope I'll see you when the day is through
ready for a change of style.
So in the heat don't be shy -
Use your imagination
now it's complete.
Sunshine and heat
Surround you on tar beach
I will meet you there
On tar beach.
Where you can lose
Those city blues
I will meet you there
On tar beach.
Sunshine and heat
Surround you on tar beach
. . .
So many situations
From day to day
The circle is turning so fast.
And who is loving who need I say
Tell me how long will it last.
So uncertain what the future holds
we never know what to expect.
Searching for that person we are told
love will be its effect.
We hold the key to control our own destination
turn it and you'll see.
Sunshine and heat surround you on tar beach
