Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah
There's three things I like about the summertime
Drop tops, long hot nights and summer love
Yeah
Hey yo, B
Tell 'em what time it is
Let's go
[Verse 2]
Out of all the guys that approached me
Walking up to me like they know me
You were the one that stayed aside
Waited a while and took your time
You don't know how impressing
Your curiosity was to me
It was the fourth day of July
Looked in my eyes and saw that I
[Verse 3]
I wanted more than just a man
I needed a friend
Someone I can talk to
Someone who'll really listen
When you touched my hand
The sun got brighter then
Trusting you, I closed my eyes
And felt our love begin
[Verse 4]
It was the summertime
When we fell in love
It was the summertime
When Heaven shined on us
It was the summertime
Baby, there is nothing like the
Summertime
Summertime
[Verse 5]
Now it's been a year and we're closer
Fall in love again when I hold ya
I know that God set you aside
For me and now you are my prize
Wanna grow old with ya
Fill a house with your pictures
Have a son for you, a little girl for me
Together we'll raise a family
[Verse 6]
I wanted more than just a man
I needed a friend
Someone I can talk to
Someone who'll really listen
When you touched my hand
The sun got brighter then
Trusting you, I closed my eyes
And felt our love begin
[Verse 7]
It was the summertime
When we fell in love
It was the summertime
When Heaven shined on us
It was the summertime
Baby, there is nothing like the
Summertime
Summertime
[Verse 8]
So what's it gonna be
Him or me?
We can cruise the world for pearls
And bare boots for girls
Summertime in the linen, fresh fruit
Living the life that's forbidden for just you
No worries, you ain't gotta be stressed out
No hurries, you ain't gotta be rushed out
Sit back, relax, ma, take your time
Now have a taste of the finest wine
Every minute that we have's a blessing to me
And in your heart you's a child os destiny
Them hot summers that we had especially
Love who you is girl, you bring out the best of me
And it's like that, you know it's like that
And that's your plan
Where's your hand, let me ice that
You my heart, ain't no chance you could fight that
The summertime when you hot
Baby, take that, take that, yeah
[Verse 9]
It was the summertime
When we fell in love
It was the summertime
When Heaven shined on us
It was the summertime
Baby, there is nothing like the
Summertime
Summertime
