It was much more my style to find sand in my eyes" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-gV-2kSzbc
Blue Rodeo - "5 Days In May" 🎶came to mind!
Later on, they took his car
Drove on down where the beaches are
He wrote her name in the sand
Never even let go of her hand https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuUnApNzIz0
Just fill your basket full of sandwiches and weenies
Then lock the house up, now you're set
And on the beach you'll see the girls in their bikinis
As cute as ever but they never get 'em wet
Surfin' USA - Beach Boys
If everybody had an ocean
Across the U.S.A.
Then everybody'd be surfin'
Like Californi-a
You'd seem 'em wearing their baggies
Huarachi sandals too
A bushy bushy blonde hairdo
Surfin' U.S.A. https://youtu.be/H0bhSGfKTs4?si=srIc1c5SlhvKZ5AA
Do It Again - Beach Boys
Suntanned bodies and waves of sunshine
The California girls and a beautiful coastline
Warmed up weather let's get together
And do it again https://youtu.be/fmHEX7QI4KU?si=fHKa0g_upkiQJLp7
Seaside Bar Song by Bruce Springsteen
"Hey girl, you wanna ride in Daddy's Cadillac
Because I love the way your long hair (hey!) falls down your back
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley at the Seaside Bar
We'll run barefoot in the sand and listen to his guitar" https://youtu.be/dBhezzOXN_0?si=rbnFdgEs-M7LCF-E

This great information
Cost me half a week's pay

Tales of Brave Ulysses - Cream
...
Her name is Aphrodite
And she rides a crimson shell
And you know you cannot leave her
For you touched the distant sands
With tales of brave Ulysses
How his naked ears were tortured
By the sirens sweetly singing

Like the wind that carried ahab
To a far, more distant shore,
To a shipwreck that was certain
Long before.

If you like making love at midnight
In the dunes on the Cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for
Write to me and escape
Conquistador, a vulture sits
Upon your silver shield
And in your rusty scabbard now
The sand has taken seed
She had her drink in her hand
She had her toes in the sand
And whoa, what a beautiful girl
Across the coral sands
I saw a hula hula dancer
Looking pretty
I asked her where she came from
And she said to me
"I come from New York City"
You'd see them wearing their baggies
Huarache sandals, too
A bushy bushy blond hairdo
Surfin' U.S.A
But everybody's kickin' sand
Even politicians
We're living in a plastic land
Somebody give me a hand, yeah
The West Coast has the sunshine
And the girls all get so tanned
I dig a French bikini on Hawaiian island dolls
By a palm tree in the sand
I blew out my flip flop
Stepped on a pop top
Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home
Boys in bikinis
Girls on surfboards
"Hey girl, you wanna ride in Daddy's Cadillac
Because I love the way your long hair (hey!) falls down your back
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley at the Seaside Bar
We'll run barefoot in the sand and listen to his guitar"

Making love or just lying around"

Floats like a cushion on the sea
Yet I can never sleep here
Everything ponders in the night

Together we'll go down to nude beach
...
We'll stroll on the sand together
Where the air and the land meet forever
The sea, the land
A land of tan
We know a place where we are free
We throw our suits into the sea
