G Matador sweeps the veil C From the last young day of my life G Malibu tides inhale C Santa Ana Winds from behind G Wade out into the water C No more chances this year G I busied myself all summer C My day for swimming is here C Yes itʼs time Seaside revelations All those dreams and visions of mine Washed up like a vacation Lost as I wasted my time Looking through my dark glasses I see smiles on the faces of friends But time keeps pushing me on now And Iʼll ride this wave till the end G Please donʼt go away C Stay awhile, stay awhile G Please donʼt go away C Stay awhile, stay awhile
