A/C's broken and the fan's burnt out
Trying to find shade in a shadow of doubt
Tired of running from the flames of truth
In the end, the heart learns that it's no use
chorus:
It's the long hot summer of the worst kind
Spending all my time dividing yours from mine
Should have known better than play love's fool
But who could resist...
The devil's charm of a boy like you
Sitting on the front porch cursing July's sweat
I'm ticking off a list of my regrets
Swearing to myself I'd never do it again
But I fear it's more a matter of where and when
repeat chorus
bridge:
Since I heard the news of you running around
The temperature's been rising
But I'm feeling down, down, down
chorus 2:
Should I feel anger, should I feel pain
Should I feel like crying like a pouring rain
Can I let you go, can I move on
Can I get lost in a heartbreak song
repeat chorus
It's a long hot summer of the worst kind
