She took a deep breath And made a wish list She had a sweet tooth She got some ginger A little cinnamon And squeezed the lime juice That's how it went Yakking in the kitchen With a female friend At ten to ten Wondering what it was She was missing again A summer tamarind A summer tamarind And with the lights lit Along the shoreline And the guitars out Like any pop wife She'd had a shop life With all the stars out That's how it rang Standing on the beach With the sturm and drang At midnight five Feeling like the Place was coming alive A summer tamarind A summer tamarind And here come the high Clouds of summer Chasing their tails in July They don't understand when The waves leave the sand It's goodbye Always goodbye A summer tamarind A summer tamarind
