Hi folks,

I searched in alt.music.lyrics for weeks now without success, so maybe here somebody reads this and it makes click.

We search a country song sung by a male artist. The song was played often on radio (AFN Nuremberg, Germany) between 1980 and 1982. My wife thinks to remember that the song tells the story of a man lying on the beach and dreaming and she's not sure but also believes it ends with the man waking up. And here is more of the text she's pretty sure to remember:

...Drinking Pina Colada down in Puerto Rico we tangoed in Montego Bay.
We sipped champagne in the summer rain of a warm Caribbean day.
I took her pretty flowers in her long dark hair at the banks of Waikiki
And I left my heart in San Francisco where she first made love to me...

Sounds as a lesson in geography doesn't it? :-)))

And here an overview, which songs we could already exclude:
NOT: Escape (The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes
NOT: Two Pina Coladas by Garth Brooks
