Afternoon low tide, workin' my plan
Got one hand in the water, the other in the sand
Two beers in a cooler, one warm heart in place
Got a picture in a bottle, one nailed up to a palm tree
One out in the wind and they all look like me
I want somebody to be the feeling's all over my face Oh, I've never been more ready than I am right now
I know sooner or later, someday, somehow
Somebody's gonna walk up
And join somebody sittin' right here
So wherever, whoever you are the coast is clear I close my eyes and the sound of the waves
Carries me forward to better days
And they open my eyes to the woman of my dreams strolling in
With a small touch of shyness and a smooth kind of style
She kisses me on the cheek and she says with a smile
"I've been waiting all my life for you baby, where have you been?" Oh, I've never been more ready than I am right now
I know sooner or later, someway, somehow
Somebody's gonna walk up
And join somebody sittin' right here
So wherever, whoever you are the coast is clear
