I've got this Caribbean queen
Rubbin' in my coconut sunscreen
You'd think you'd be the last thing on my mind
I've got a beautiful ocean view
Ten thousand miles from you
So Why couldn't I leave this broken heart behind

(Chorus)

Oh The sunshine is dancin' on the water
Pretty girls couldn't get any hotter
If I keep tellin' myself
I'm havin' the time of my life
Maybe it'll come true and I won't miss you
Welcome to a fool's paradise

Well I keep on tellin' me
There's other fish in the sea
But your memory keeps reminding me I'm wrong
There's a party 'bout every night
And I should be out doin' it up right
Instead of watchin' re-runs of Gilligan's Island all alone (all night long)

(Chorus)

Oh the moonlight is dancin' on the water
Pretty girls couldn't get any hotter
If I keep tellin' myself
I'm havin' the time of my life
Maybe it'll come true and I won't miss you
Welcome to a fool's paradise

This time next week I'll be headed to Texas On a big jet airplane
Oh when I get home you know this broken heart is gonna hit
Me like a hurricane

(Chorus)

Oh The sunshine is dancin' on the water
Pretty girls couldn't get any hotter
If I keep tellin' myself
I'm havin' the time of my life
Maybe it'll come true and I won't miss you
Welcome to a fool's paradise
