It’s summer in the city,
Our crazy world’s on tilt,
Thank God we planned a getaway-
A Friday night beach trip…
We don’t need a barkeep,
Just a tapped keg in the sand…
Forget the Coleman lanterns,
I can light a fire by hand…
…Even asked some friends along
We’ll play guitar, sing drinkin’ songs
Set our spirits free…

We’ll build a bonfire…
A bonfire on the beach…
Nothing can lift us higher…
Than a bonfire on the beach…

We can swim by moonlight,
The water here is safe…
We own this coast ‘til sunrise,
It’s a magic party place…
…Just be yourself out here,
Relax, we the make rules…
Long as we’re all smilin’,
Everything is cool…
Check your hangups at the door,
Whatever happens on this shore,
Stays on this shore…

We gotta bonfire…
A bonfire on the beach…
Nothing can lift us higher…
Than a bonfire on the beach…

(Bridge)
Without city haze and bright street lights,
We can see the Milky Way…
I’ll hold you close until the break of dawn,
And we’ll dance the stars away…

At the bonfire…
Bonfire on the beach…
Nothing can lift us higher…
Than a bonfire on the beach…

If your face feels a little flushed,
You’re ‘bout to have a body rush…
So…just…let…go…
At the bonfire…
At the bonfire…
Bonfire on the beach…
