Long Hot Summer Nights

Every ray of the sun tells you it's endless But the clouds in the sky say, No it won't last. So take the cool morning dreams when you would lie awake In thoughts of a better time Don't let them pass Try and hold on And remember When September comes Think of all the laughter and the songs we've sung Through the long hot summer nights When all the neighbors took their chairs outside And I could see the stars in your eyes Through the long hot summer nights. Now it's work and it's school, no time to linger As the nights grow cooler and they're gone too soon Take the joy that you felt when you were dancing Let it shine, let it shine like the midnight moon. Can you hold on And remember When September comes Think of all the laughter and the songs we've sung Through the long hot summer nights... In my heart, it's true I believe in August and I believe in you When you're down and it's cold There'll be somebody you can have and hold Someone you can turn to Someone who knows about the long hot summer nights...
