Oh, The Great Summer Nights

Laying under the glistening sun,
Everyone’s having a ball.
Children collecting seashells,
What a wonderful place for all.

Sand in between your toes,
The splashing waves of the ocean.
The surfers riding the water,
The beach is like a love potion.

Kids building sandcastles,
All the water gun fights.
People throwing sand,
Oh, the great summer nights.

The families all gathered together,
One sausage roll for each.
Cause’ when it's time to leave,
Oh, everyone will miss the beach.
