26 Miles (Santa Catalina) - The Four Preps

Twenty-six miles across the sea

Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me

Santa Catalina the island of romance

Romance romance romance

Water all around it everywhere

Tropical trees and the salty air

But for me the thing that's a-waitin' there romance

It seems so distant twenty-six miles away

Restin' in the water serene

I'd work for anyone even the Navy

Who would float me to my island dream

Twenty-six miles so near yet far

I'd swim with just some water-wings and my guitar

I could leave the wings

But I'll need the guitar for romance

Romance romance romance

Twenty-six miles across the sea

Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me

Santa Catalina the island of romance

A tropical heaven out in the ocean

Covered with trees and girls

If I have to swim I'll do it forever

'Til I'm gazin' on those island pearls

Forty kilometers in a leaky old boat

Any old thing that'll stay afloat

When we arrive we'll all promote romance

Romance romance romance

Twenty-six miles across the sea

Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me

Santa Catalina

The island of romance

Romance romance romance

Twenty-six miles across the sea

Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me

Twenty-six miles across the sea
