(VERSE 1)   Living in the city can be tough on you    Got to get away once in a while    Hope I’ll see you when the day is through    Ready for a change of style       (VERSE 2 – ORIGINAL ALBUM VERSION ONLY)   People moving here and moving there   Everybody’s got routine    Looking closely at their own affairs   With never a change of scene       (BRIDGE 1)   So in the heat don’t be shy    Use your imagination    Now it’s complete      (CHORUS)   Sunshine and heat    Surround you on tar beach    I will meet you there    (On tar beach)    Where you can lose    Those city blues    I will meet you there    (On tar beach)    Sunshine and heat    Surround you on tar beach    I will meet you       (VERSE 2)   So many situations from day to day    The circle is turning so fast   And who is loving who need I say    Tell me how long will it last?       (VERSE 3)   So uncertain what the future holds    We never know what to expect   Searching for that person we are told    Love will be its effect      (BRIDGE 2)   We hold the key to control   Our own destination    Turn it and you’ll see      (REPEAT CHORUS)   Sunshine and heat    Surround you on tar beach    I will meet you there    (On tar beach)    Where you can lose    Those city blues    I will meet you there    (On tar beach)    Sunshine and heat    Surround you on tar beach    I will meet you there      (REPEAT CHORUS TO FADE)
