[Verse 1]
I'm gonna pack my bags, get myself out of here
I'm gonna get me a train and a taxi, a plane
I'm gonna disappear, I been waiting for this moment far too long
Mm, I wanna get me some sun

[Verse 2]
Well I been saving all my money but not for a rainy day
I put in everything I got for a summer breakaway
I been moping around this dreary town for far too long
Mm I wanna get me some sun

[Chorus]
And winter blues will be washed away
In the heat of a summer holiday
On the beach under a summer sky
I have to make the most of it this time
I'm on my own, but I'll be fine
People I know all seem to be dropping like flies
Well there is just so many tears that you can cry

[Refrain]
Well I won't be coming back here for awhile
You know, I've almost forgotten how to smile
Far too many rainy days and far too many shades of grey
Oh, I wanna get me some sun
And maybe it'll help me to forget
Winter days, freezing cold and always soaking wet
So mister take me away from here
Somewhere where the skies are clear
Oh, I wanna get me some sun
[Chorus]
Winter blues will be washed away
In the heat of a summer holiday
On the beach under a summer sky
I have to make the most of it this time
I'm on my own, but I'll be fine
People I know all seem to be dropping like flies
Well there is just so many tears that you can cry

[Refrain]
So I won't be coming back here for awhile
You know I have almost forgotten how to smile
Far too many rainy days far and too many shades of grey
I wanna get me some sun, mm, I wanna have me some fun
Even though it's just a ticket for one
