She comes to my bed like a whisper
Slips in the sheet like a ghost
Says to my ear "Hey mister,
You need to take this girl to the coast
I need to kick my feet up in the ocean
Feel the taste of salt sea spray
Baby let's live in the moment
Cause it feels like life is taking the moment away
Let's Seize the day, Seize the day, Seize the day"
In the kitchen in the morning
She poured coffee in my favorite cup
She's been dancing on the linoleum-- bare foot
The squeaking nearly woke me up
She put Tom Jones on the stereo
- Now that I could do without
Ah, but who needs perfection?
I like the tension when there's room for doubt
