Summer on the coast
Lemon blossom in the air
Strangers holding hands
At the start of their affair
I watch the sun go down
Like it did on my heart
No where left to go
But limoncello after dark
Watching the local men
Wondering what it’d be like
To pick one of them up
Take them to my bed tonight
But I watch the sun go down
And ease my broken heart
Sitting on the coast
With limoncello after dark
Lovers on the beach
Walking hand in hand
I watch them disappear
Down amongst the sand
Do you remember once
Back then at the start
You took me by the hand
And then we drank limoncello after dark
Summers passing on
The lemon blossoms no longer there
Strangers shouting in the street
At the end of their affair
The sun is finally setting
Like it did on my heart
No I’ve only memories
Like limoncello after dark
