Late July with the sun up high
The cicadas sing as the weeks drawl by
I read all day, in a hammock sway
Time like molasses it melts away
Need to beat the sleepy, sweet heat
My friends call, they'd all like to meet
And so you see, in 90 degrees
It's a dinner under the olive trees
The brittle clink
The deep red drink
The cocktail chatter in silver ink
A single glance
Summer romance
An evening entirely up to chance
One night
To dance away under the bright moonlight
To get lost in the magic of your eyes
Oh, but it's only for the night
One night
Within a moment everything collides
It's all exactly how the films described
Oh, but it's only for the night

It's all exactly how the films described
Oh, but it's only for the night
Night, one night
I wake up and blink open both my eyes
All I see are the pastel colored skies
I guess there never was a night
It seems
That it was nothing but a summer dream
I fell asleep under the sunshine beams
Then again, there's always tonight
Night, one night
Within a moment everything collides
It's all exactly how the films described
Oh, but it's only for the night
