I know It's out of fashion And a trifle uncool But I can't help it I'm a romantic fool It's a habit of mine To watch the sun go down On Echo beach I watch the sun go down From nine till five I have To spend my time at work The job is very boring I'm an office clerk The only thing that helps Pass the time away Is knowing I'll be back At Echo Beach some day On a silent summer evening The sky's alive with light Building in the distance Surrealistic sight On Echo Beach Waves make the only sound On Echo Beach There's not a soul around From nine till five I have To spend my time at work The job is very boring I'm an office clerk The only thing that helps Pass the time away Is knowing I'll be back At Echo Beach some day Echo Beach Far away in time Echo Beach Far away in time
