Hello Sandpiper

Verse 1
I don’t recall just how it happened
I had just woke up from napping
On that island under that palm tree
The sun was hot, humidity steaming
At first I thought I was still dreaming
My eyes were tired, but I could clearly see
You were there among sandpipers
You walked smooth, they were hyper
Running back and forth to dodge the waves
Normally, I would have been mute
You looked so good in your swimsuit
I just found it easy to be brave, and said
Chorus 1
«Hello, Sandpiper, what is it you’re looking for
Why search the whole beach, no need to look any more»
You said, «I hear you, you are a man of clever words
But are you talking to me or talking to the birds»
Verse 2
Right then I saw no reason
For me to keep on believing
You would give me some of your time
But then I saw you smiling
So I thought I would keep trying
To see if I might just change your mind
So I said, «I meant you no harm
Didn’t mean to set off your alarm
I promise I will take things much more slow»
You said, «Tell me how is it you knew
My friends call me Sandpiper too
I think we’ll share some time before I go,» I said
Chorus 2
Hello, sandpiper, what is it you’re looking for
Why search the whole beach, no need to look any more
You said, «Be patient, I am very hard to catch
Something could be cooking here and we might be a match»
Instrumental
Verse 3
So, the day it lingered on
And like the birds, time it had flown
The sun kept smiling down upon the scene
Soon the day turned to evening
Chemistry, it kept on steaming
Both of us started to believe
That this day was the start of bonding
So much we had in common
We just could not end it there and then
Now the years have proved that some days
Sandpipers do not run away
Each morning I can say to you again
Chorus 3
Hello, Sandpiper, Hello, Sandpiper
Hello, Sandpiper, Hello, Sandpiper
