Somewhere By The Sea - Cliff Richard, The Shadows

Well I met her at party

At, somewhere by sea

She was tall and she was lovely

And she said hello to me

We said all the usual things that you say at a party

I told her some real funny jokes

She broke down and cried

Well we were drinking scotch and cola

And the smoke was far too much

She was leaning on my shoulder

And our hands began to touch

I said, «Do you fancy a dance?»

She said, «But we’re dancing»

I said, «Then let’s have a drink»

And she said, «All righty»

Now we were drinking to the music

And when suddenly I saw

I was holding onto three of her

That’s two more than before

I said, «Would you care for a stroll?»

She said, «Yes I’d like to»

We went for a walk in the mist

Fell over a cliff

When I work up in the morning

Well it sure felt good to be

Just lying in my bath tub

And not the bottom of the sea

I looked at my eyes in glass

Said «Never again»

And just they looked back at me

The telephone rang

Hello

Hello, Cliff.

It’s Brucie.

Listen, you didn’t take that darling home last night,

did you?"

That’s right.

I didn’t take that darling home last night

Oh.

Anyway listen, there’s a great new party on tonight

Do you fancy coming?

No, thanks.

Once in a lifetime is enough for me

Oh
