See You Next Year, Summer!

I hate to say goodbye to the sunny season because I am such a beach person. But it has been raining for a few days now which makes it odd to be planning a weekend beach getaway. Besides, day pictures and sunset pictures wouldn't be as nice (I want my blue skies during the day and orange/red skies during sunset/dusk).

When I miss the beach, I turn to music. I am a reggae fan (especially Bob Marley's songs) but this year, this song has been playing in my iPod over and over again. I know it is old but it is such a feel good song and I find the words really sweet. Just close your eyes and it instantly brings you back to the shore. Enjoy!

Underneath It All
No Doubt

There's times where I want something more
Someone more like me
There's times when this dress rehearsal
Seems incomplete
But, you see the colors in me like no one else
And behind your dark glasses you're...
You're something else

[Chorus]
You're really lovely, underneath it all
You want to love me, underneath it all
I'm really lucky, underneath it all
You're really lovely

You know some real bad tricks
And you need some discipline
But, lately you've been trying real hard
And giving me your best
And, you give me the most gorgeous sleep
That I've ever had
And when it's really bad
I guess it's not that bad

[Chorus]

So many moons that we have seen
Stumbling back next to me
I've seen right through and underneath
And you make me better
I've seen right through and underneath
And you make me better
Better... better...

You are my real prince charmin', like the heat from the fire
You were always burnin', and each time you're around
My body keeps stalin', for your touch
Your kisses and your sweet romancin', there's an underside to you
That so many adore, aside from your temper
Everything else secure, you're good for me, baby
Oh that, I'm sure
Over and over again, I want more

You've used up all your coupons
And all you've got left is me
And somehow I'm full of forgiveness
I guess it's meant to be

[Chorus 2x]
