(Jim McBride - Charlie Craig - Alan Jackson)

I thought some time in the sun
Would help me get over you
But I could tell from day one
This is a place meant for two.

Now here I sit on the beach
Watching the tide ebb and flow
I booked my room for a week
But now I'm ready to go.

I'm in a tropical depression
I've got the blue water blues
Can't shake this loving you obsession
Can't stand this sand in my shoes.
This forgetting you vacation
Is just a fool's holiday
If I can't get over you
This tropical depression is gonna blow me away.

--- Instrumental ---

This should be paradise
Heaven down by the sea
Without you here by my side
It feels like hell to me.

I'm in a tropical depression
I've got the blue water blues
Can't shake this loving you obsession
Can't stand this sand in my shoes.
This forgetting you vacation
Is just a fool's holiday
If I can't get over you
This tropical depression is gonna blow me away.

If I can't get over you
This tropical depression is gonna blow me away...
