A Place In The Sun Lyrics
Imagine a sunny holiday
Paris or cafe
Corner table for two
And that is me and you
Barefoot by the shore
A drink with ice and two straws
Sigh up at clouded sky
You wave as the girls go by
Take a boat out for a while
You row and I lay back in style
We'll reach the other side you say
But we never get half way
When the evening comes around
We stroll through a lamp lit little town
Miles and miles from home
Happy to be on our own
Nothing I would rather do
All I want is a place in the sun and you
Nothing I would rather do
All I want is a place in the sun and you
Paris or cafe
Corner table for two
And that is me and you
A drink with ice and two straws
Sigh up at clouded sky
You wave as the girls go by
You row and I lay back in style
We'll reach the other side you say
But we never get half way
We stroll through a lamp lit little town
Miles and miles from home
Happy to be on our own
All I want is a place in the sun and you
Nothing I would rather do
All I want is a place in the sun and you

"Parasol cafe"
The song is about a woman who is dreaming of a date with her boyfriend, having fun with him. It's a nice, mellow fantasy of making happy memories together. It's been said that Kurt Cobain liked this song, and the Marine Girls as well.
[Edit: added factoid]
Oh the Marine Girls get no respect.
Cute little ditty that is a perfect summer distraction song
