When the ices melt
I admit I felt
A lifting in my heart
Every land becomes an island
Everywhere a paradise
Oh my, it's so divine
There's no more snow at Christmas time
Just summer rains
So I hung up my hat, scarf and coat
Put on my birthday suit
Even though it is December
It feels like it's the month of June
When I get up, I get up and go
Surfing with the girls
They are all from California
Finer than an oyster's pearl
Oh what a place to be
I pluck a mango from a tree
As the summer rains
Are falling from the sky
When the ices melt I began to sing
A joyful melody
An orchestra of ukuleles
Strumming in the sweetest key
The tail of a wintery ghost
Is lost in an island breeze
I'm paddling into the sunset
Leave behind my memories
Oh, it's begun
What's been done can't be undone
Once summer reigns
I'm dancing with the sea
Water washing over me
As the summer rains
Are falling from the sky
Summer rains
Are falling from the sky
