He was just a friend of mine
I d run into from time to time
Long before he moved away
We used to share a taste for wine
Still I never knew that he was sad back then
He said the time had come for him to take a holiday
And he says it s brilliant there
There s something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He s on the beach
I know he s changed somehow
He sends those postcards now
I m not sure where he is
but he s out of reach
When he called me up one day
And said that he was going away
I thought he meant a week in France
And not twelve thousand miles to Sydney Bay
Still he had to take his chances
He said the time had come for him to make a move away
And he says it s brilliant there
There s something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He s on the beach
I know he s changed somehow
He writes those postcards now
He s on his own again
And he s out of reach
(my baby gets it on the beach)
And I don t blame him
Leaving was the best thing he could do
He longed for changes
I just hope he s happy
When he does the things he thinks he has to do
And he tries, and he tries
Yes he tries but he s a little bit hard on himself
Somehow he s trying to be someone else
And he says, he says, he says it s brilliant there
There s something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He s on the beach
I know he s changed somehow
It s in his postcards now
He s on his own again
So far out of reach
And he says it s brilliant there
There s something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He s on the beach
I know he s changed somehow
It s in his postcards now
He s in Australia
So far out of reach
...
And he says it s brilliant there
