Paddling out and the sun, ain't come up yet
Paddling out and the sun, ain't come up yet
Waiting, anticipating, for those southwest summer sets
No one's out except the o dark thirty crew
No one's out except the o dark thirty crew
Doug's got a new board, gonna show us a move or two
The moon is high, the ocean looks like glass
The moon is high, the ocean looks like glass
Hope the big sets roll in, while these conditions last
Instrumental
Moon lights up a wave, building way outside
Moon lights up a wave, that's building way outside
I'm either gonna take it, or it takes me for a ride
Turn and go, I'm late I know, and I don't even care
Turn and go, I'm late I know, and I don't even care
I pop up too damn slow, so I say a little prayer
I'm in the drop, I'm blind man, I need some light
I'm in the drop, I'm blind man, I need some light
Set my rail and bottom turn, it's gonna be alright
That's how it goes when you surf with just moonlight
That's how it goes when you surf with just moonlight
And the sunrise over Diamond Head, still a beautiful sight
