First thing that I did this year was kiss you by the firelight,
My favourite girls on either side at midnight.
Makes sense not to be alone or finish the year on our own,
I don't care if I'm goin' home tonight.
Instrumental Interlude
If you're fond of sand dunes and salty air then take me there.
Over the hills, not far away.
Take me from the house you rent where somebody puked in the tent,
Let's catch a flame, set fire to yesterday.
Take us somewhere over the dunes, not far away from here.
You've got the fuel, we've got the fire.
Let's set a spark right here, and blaze into the new year.
First time that we met you pressed your breast against my arm
as I was standing on the stage and singin' songs.
You said I was cute, I wrapped my arm around your waist
and then we sat there holding hands singing along.
It went something like…
Whistling
Don't know where we'll go from here, so let's just finish this year.
Let's catch a blaze, set fire to yesterday.
Take us somewhere over the dunes, not far away from here.
We've got the rhyme, you've got the reason.
Let's make it a great year, without any need for tears.
Bridge
Now it's time for going home, back over the dunes we go.
The best part of last year was here with you.
Let's take a walk back with Bess, someone's gotta clean up this mess.
I'll wash the plates, you do the barbeque.
Take us somewhere over the dunes, not far away from here.
We've got the will, you know the way.
Let's forget all of our fears.
Take us somewhere over the dunes, not far away from here.
You've got the boards, we've got the boogie.
Let's catch a wave this year and forget all of our fears.
