In the shade, in grey houses
So many people are waiting for the day to end
The tar on the asphalt sighs from the heat
He tells me to run from the city
If he were me, he'd do it
I don't want to be alone tonight
The summer in my heart is going wild
I want to live as a hippie or just be free-ee-ee
In the heat of summer nights
I want to find myself on the blue sea
On my own island, I could just strum the guitar
If I had a lot of time, half of it to spare
I'd bring all my friends and wouldn't break up the party
Until tomorrow comes
We don't want to be alone tonight
The heat of the summer would make us go wild
We're living as hippies and we're just free-ee-ee
In the heat of summer nights
E-ee-ee, it's the summer in our hearts
E-ee-ee, it's the heat within our souls
E-ee-ee, it's the summer in our hearts
and it's going wild
It's the summer in our hearts
It's the heat within our souls
I want to live as a hippie or just be free-ee-ee
In the heat of summer nights
We don't want to be alone tonight
The heat of the summer made us go wild
We could live as hippies and just be free-ee-ee
In the heat of summer nights
