She’s standing at the end of the pier
Waiting for her friend
Sun is sinking into the sea
Breeze gently kisses her hair
I’m taking shots in the shooting range
Watching her from the corner of my eye
I hope I win a teddy bear
I might just give it to her
Can you be my arcade girl
I’ll never lose with you around
Be my arcade girl
I’ll never you lose with you around
I’ll let you sit and drive me wild
Crash and bump the dodgem cars
We can eat candy apples
I’ll watch your lips so red
I’ll walk us to a local club
The rockin bands play late
We can dance, dance real slow
I’ll hold you close in my embrace
When the moonlight splashes down
Across the waves and sand
Walk you home to your door
We’ll kiss again and say good night
I’ll be happier and full of life
Going home alone
Then I see your friend arrive
She takes you by the hand
Kisses you like I’d do
If I’d won the teddy bear
