Long Hot Summer
I can't sleep
Ain't no sleep a'coming
I'm just lying here thinking 'bout you 
I'm in deep
Falling deep into the picture in my mind ofeverything we're gonna do [1]
Over at the lake and down by the river
You can feel it start to rise
Wanna jump in my car, go wherever you are
'Cause I need you by my side
It's gonna be a long, hot summer, we should betogether
With your feet up on the dashboard now
Singing along with the radio, it's such abeautiful sound
And when you say my name in the middle of theday, I swear I see the stars come out
When you hold my hand in the back of my mind,just waiting on the sun to go down, the sun to go down
I wanna see your brown skin shimmer in the sunfor the first time
I try to be the one who knows just what to doto you to get me that smile
One chance of meeting, you were walking by meon the street and I said hi
And that was the beginning of my heartspinnin' like these wheels in my head tonight
（同上）
The only place that I wanna be is where youare
'Cause anymore than a heartbeat away is justtoo far
It's gonna be a long, hot summer, we should betogether
All I really want is more than this momentright now
And when you say my name in the middle of theday, I swear I see the stars come out
And when you hold my hand and I look into youreyes
I swear it looks like you're waiting for thesun to go down, the sun to go down
I swear it's like you're waiting for the sunto go down
Waiting on the sun to go down
Hey, yeah
Oh, I'm loving thinking 'bout you
I can't sleep, I'm just lying here thinkin''boutyou《炎炎长夏》，辗转反侧难以入眠，只想飞奔到你身边，相伴看那夕阳落山。如此画面感十足的动听歌曲希望给还没准备好步入夏天的你些许清爽。。。今天我们就来学习一些与“HOT”有关的英语表达！
