In the time before the twilight
Settles on the world
Woah, you can feel the magic
Dreamin' of someone to hold tight
One more lonely girl
Woah, dances in her attic
Everywhere across the land
In front of their mirrors
With combs in their hands
They prepare to make a stand
Lover to lover, woman to man
Livin' for the small town
Hot summer nights
Radio 'bout to blow
Top down under the lights
Feel the heat, wild and sweet
Hot summer nights
Riding solo in his front seat
Bursting at the seams
Woah, drivin' by desire
Home town hero haunts the main street
Dreaming desperate dreams
Woah, where there's smoke there's fire
And some believe that love is won
And some of them go like they're under the gun
In between what's already done
And the promise they feel in the evening to come
Out for the small town
Hot summer nights
Radio 'bout to blow
Top down under the lights
Feel the heat, wild and sweet
Hot summer nights
In the end two hearts will meet
And maybe they'll find whatever they seek
If they can, they'll learn how to keep
The faith that they found in the sound of the beat
Out for those small town
Hot summer nights
Radio 'bout to blow
Top down under the lights
Feel the heat, wild and sweet
Livin' for the small town
Hot summer nights
Radio 'bout to blow
Top down under the lights
Feel the heat, wild and sweet
Hot summer nights
