Yeah

There's three things I like about the summertime

Drop tops, long hot nights and summer love

Yeah

Ayo, B

Tell 'em what time it is

Let's go

Out of all the guys that approached me

Walkin' 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

I wanted more than just a man (man)

I needed a friend (a friend)

Someone I can talk to (oh)

Someone who'll really listen (yeah)

When you touched my hand (hand)

The sun got brighter then (brighter then)

Trusting you, I closed my eyes

And felt our love begin

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)

(Oh)

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 wit' ya

Fill a house wit' your pictures

Have a son for you, a little girl for me

Together we'll raise a family

I wanted more than just a man

I needed a friend (you are my best friend)

Someone I can talk to (yeah)

Someone who'll really listen (yeah)

When you touched my hand (yeah)

The sun got brighter then (brighter then)

Trusting you, I closed my eyes (yeah)

And felt our love begin

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)

(Oh)

Yo, lemme holla at you a sec

So what's it gonna be, him or me? (yeah)

We can cruise the world for pearls

And gator boots for girls

Summertime in the linen, fresh fruit (yeah)

Livin' the life that's forbidden for just you (let's go)

No worries, you ain't gotta be stressed out (uh-uh)

No hurries, you ain't gotta be rushed out (uh-uh)

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 (a blessing to me)

And in your heart, you's a "Child of Destiny" (that's right)

Them hot summers that we had especially (yeah)

Love who you is, girl, you bring out the best in me (thank you)

And it's like that, you know it's like that (that's right)

And that's the plan, where's your hand? Lemme ice that (let's go)

You my heart, ain't no chance you could fight that

The summertime, when you hot, baby, take that, take that

Yeah, yeah

Oh, 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)

(Oh)
