Golden rays on the water, shining like a dream Skaters on the boardwalk, the coolest scene Fisherman’s Wharf smells like salt and fries We’re laughing, we’re living, under clear blue skies Pier 39, with the streetlights glowing Alcatraz in the distance, secrets no one’s knowing From the hills to the bay, we’re running wild Forever young, just like a child Summer on the Bay, where the sunsets play Golden Gate dreams never fade away We’re chasing the tide, with the wind on our side It’s a California summer, and we’re alive! Ice cream melting, running down our hands Music in the park, we’re a streetlight band Tourists snapping pics of the Painted Ladies We’re stealing time, oh man, it’s crazy City lights sparkling, the night’s just begun Driving down Lombard, twisting just for fun We’re young, we’re free, with the bay in our soul This summer’s ours, we’re taking control Summer on the Bay, where the sunsets play Golden Gate dreams never fade away We’re chasing the tide, with the wind on our side It’s a California summer, and we’re alive! The waves crash soft, the sky turns red Sitting on the shore, where dreams are bred Every laugh, every kiss, every star we see It’s a part of us now, it’s our memory Summer on the Bay, where the sunsets play Golden Gate dreams never fade away We’re chasing the tide, with the wind on our side It’s a California summer, and we’re alive! Bay breezes call, the ocean’s hymn We’ll be back next summer to dive back in Forever in our hearts, this place will stay The magic of our youth, summer on the bay
