backyard

I want the beach to be my backyard
I don't want to travel too far
To see the waves
To see the waves

When I win the lotto
I know
Where I'll go
The place I call home
Might not be there tomorrow
It won't be that far though
And I've waited for a long time anyway
So what's another couple days

I want the beach to be my backyard
I don't want to travel too far
To see the waves
To see the waves
(Yeah)
I want the beach to be my backyard
See the sunset
Strum a guitar
Watch the fire in the sky turn into stars
I want the beach to be my backyard

A place where I can sleep outside
Dream under the full moon light
The tide's singing me lullabies
This is the life
My debts are all paid and
It's not complicated
I just want to play
Yesterday gets washed away
And I feel great

I want the beach to be my backyard
I don't want to travel too far
To see the waves
To see the waves
I want the beach to be my backyard
See the sunset
Strum a guitar
Watch the fire in the sky turn into stars
I want the beach to be my backyard

Me and you
A postcard view
Our favorite shade of blue
Ooh ooh
​
I want the beach to be my backyard
I don't want to travel too far
To see the waves
To see the waves
I want the beach to be my backyard
I don't want to travel too far
To see the waves
To see the waves
I want the beach to be my backyard
See the sunset
Strum a guitar
Watch the fire in the sky turn into stars
I want the beach to be my backyard
Want the beach
Want the beach
Want the beach as my backyard
