Benidorm Lyrics by Race Horses

2011

What can I say?
I was only seventeen
Living my life
I was waiting in a dream
She sent me a letter
Saying, "It won't get better"
It wasn't good
Some people talk it over
I know I should
But I put my bag on my shoulder
I'm walking out
I'm going, I'm really going
My bags are packed and I'm waiting
Don't stay at home with your sister
Come with me south for the summer
It's a declaration
An abbreviation for
"Let's go on holiday"
There must be a better way
Don't be alarmed
If some day you wake up
Sat here alone
With no way to make it up
Or work it out
Sat on a beach on a cloudy day of May
A meaningless trip, a chance to get away
But even blonde turns to grey
In time
I'm going, I'm really going
My bags are packed and I'm waiting
(You know it won't be long)
Don't stay at home with your sister
(Till we're in Benidorm)
Come with me south for the summer
(On a cruise)
I'm going, I'm really going
(A cruise)
My bags are packed and I'm waiting
(You know it won't be long)
Don't stay at home with your sister
(Till we're in Benidorm)
Come with me south for the summer
I whisper as I wave
But you'll never know
Oh, the last thing that I said
And you're cruel
(I'm never going home)
How cruel
(I'm gonna stay here on my own)
So cruel
You're so cruel
(I'm never going home)
You're cruel
(I'm gonna stay in Benidorm)
