Vi tar vägen mot stranden
Vi som aldrig setts förr
Att du vågar gå med mig
Ifrån trängsel och vin
Det var enkelt för båda
Bara öppna en dörr
Sommarnatten är från
Och med nu din och min
Med en suck rullar vågorna in

Ta mej till havet, och gör mej till kung!
Kung över sommar'n och natten
Sanden är fuktig och kvinnan är ung
Galen av längtan är jag
Dofterna samlas, och luften blir tung
Ta mig till havet och stanna
Tills natten blir dag 

Kanske något berusad
Fastän glasklar ändå
När ett sinne I taget
Fylls av allt jag kan få
Om jag lever imorgon
Spelar ingen roll alls
Vi har hört havet spela
Våran sommarnattsvals
Jag vill ha dej
När natten ser på 

Ta mej till havet, och gör mej till kung!
Kung över sommar'n och natten
Sanden är fuktig och kvinnan är ung
Galen av längtan är jag
Dofterna samlas, och luften blir tung
Ta mig till havet och stanna
Tills natten blir dag
