Lyrics
Sunset Girl
By Winston Montgomery
Verse 1:
Sunset girl
She seldom sees a sunset out on Ocean Beach
Can't tell if the horizon is beyond her reach
It's closer than it seems, Sunset girl
Verse 2:
Sunset Girl
She strolls along the sand dunes down from Lincoln Way
Stops to watch a bonfire cross from the Beach Chalet
Don't get too close, Sunset girl
Bridge:
In your hooded sweatshirt and your Converse high-tops
You've made your self as plain as you can be
But the briny air that keeps your skin so soft and fair
Creates a tangle of blond hair for all to see
------------------------------
Break
------------------------------
Verse 3:
Sunset Girl
She hates the surfers and the tourist cars
Longs to be alone with the waves and the stars
The earth is crowded, Sunset girl
Bridge:
The world is ruled by liars and people who love money
No one cares to know just how you feel
With your pit bull, Ben, as your only real friend
Life is wearing you down like a skateboard wheel
Outro:
Sunset Girl, climbing down the cliffside to the Sutro Baths
Muffled through the fog she hears the breakers crash
No matter where life takes you
Ocean Beach awaits you
You'll never lose the Sunset
Sunset girl
