Spanish is the loving tongue
 
 The lost girl in the midnight sun
 
 Is lost and young
 
 She comes as if from a dream
 
 And asks me what does living mean
 
 I'm lost? I'm lost
 
  
  We build in sand before the tide
 
 I understand that we can't hide
  
 
 The revenge of suburban spite
 
 They turn their backs upon the light
 
 They're wrong they're wrong
 
 The narrow minded who cannot learn
 
 From bearded boys and lank haired girls
 
 Who were right. Right on
  
 
 In the hours of idle dreaming
 
 Ten gold leaves my blood is bleeding
 
 We build in sand before the tide
 
 I understand that we can't hide
 
 And try to hide that we don't understand
  
 
 Come and live out on the beach
 
 Where new Victorian blackouts bleach
 
 Oh come oh come
 
 Reject their values and their fear
 
 Money isn't worshipped here
 
 Oh come oh come
 
 There will be times of joy and sorrow
 
 Don't put off life until tomorrow
 
 The spark of human kindness catches
 
 A little flame among the ashes
 
 Truth will only come in snatches
