Summertime blows me away

And summertime I can't stay

It's not sensible, but I'm desperate

I'm a part of it

What I find takes me away

And what I find I can't stay

It's inevitable though' I can't let go

I will never know

Oh baby, "why does August get the best of me?"

September comes and I am hot to see

My heart will keep burning for you

Summertime blows me away

And summertime leads me astray

With these hopeless dreams of these endless things

I may not achieve

What I see I don't know

But it's killing me

I can't see why everything crumbles

And I can't let it be

Oh baby, "why does August get the best of me?"

September comes and I am hot to see

My heart will keep burning for you

Cus what I got they say will last for several days

Weather man says, "ain't nothings going to change"

My heart will keep burning for you
