lyrics
[Verse 1:]
We're on a short vacation now
Going miles away from home
Heading to the sandy beach
People, this is where we roam
I write my name on the sand, or build a castle
Under the sun, we can splash in the sea
Sip on piña coladas, or just the orange juice
This day is going to be refreshing
[Pre-chorus:]
We're lost in a place (Oh, you know, you know that)
So they fill up the space (Oh, you know, you know that)
I got me wrapped up in lace (Oh, you know, you know that)
On these hot summer days (Everybody)
[Chorus:]
Bring on the sunscreen, we're hanging out with the Little Queen
(It's a fiery afternoon, we can play and make our moves)
White sand, palm trees, and everything in between
(We got the halo-halo, make the fellas holla, holla)
[Verse 2:]
Cottage break, cool down, the sizzling day goes on
Swimming, tanning, on the shore, we're on the run
Partying, enjoying overnight 'til the break of dawn
One thing is for sure
[Pre-chorus:]
We're lost in a place (Oh, you know, you know that)
So they fill up the space (Oh, you know, you know that)
I got me wrapped up in lace (Oh, you know, you know that)
On these hot summer days (Everybody)
[Chorus:]
Bring on the sunscreen, we're hanging out with the Little Queen
(It's a fiery afternoon, we can play and make our moves)
White sand, palm trees, and everything in between
(We got the halo-halo, make the fellas holla, holla)
