XTC Summer Hot As This
Sun is perching on my office block
the air conditioning's run away
no one dares to swim the street below
while the world's a ball of baking clay
Never knew a summer hot as this before
never knew burn me through
never knew a summer hot as this before
but then I never knew you
Bed is drowning me in sheets of fire
what are you doing in my dreams?
I'm usually immune to August heat
but you're reducing me to tiny streams
Never knew a summer hot as this before
never knew burn me through
never knew a summer hot as this before
but then I never knew you
You melt me down enough to fill a coffee cup
and what I've found is that
I spend all day dreaming that you'll drink me up
Never knew a summer hot as this before
never knew burn me through
never knew a summer hot as this before
but then I never knew you
