Sweet summer night and I'm stripped to my sheets

Forehead is leaking, my AC squeaks and


A voice from the clock says, "You're not gonna get tired"


My bed is a pool and the walls are on fire

Soak my head in the sink for a while


Chills on my neck and it makes me smile but


My bones have to move and my skin's gotta breathe

You pick up the phone and I'm so relieved


You slide down your stairs to the heated street


And the sun has left us with slippery feet

And I want to walk around with you


And I want to walk around with you


And be here with you, we're goin'




It doesn't really matter, I'll go where you feel


Hunt for the breeze, get a midnight meal

I point in the windows, you point out the parks


Rip off your sleeves and I'll ditch my socks


We'll dance to the songs from the cars as they pass

Weave through the cardboard, smell that trash


Walking around in our summertime clothes,


Nowhere to go while our bodies glow

And we'll greet the dawn in its morning blues


With purple yawn, you'll be sleeping soon


And I want to walk around with you

And I want to walk around with you





When the sun goes down, we'll go out again

Don't cool off, I like your warmth





Let's leave the sound of the heat for the sound of the rain

It's easy to sleep when it wets my brain


It covers my rest with a saccharine sheen


Kissing the wind through my window screen

The restlessness calls us, that I cannot hide


So much on my mind that it spills outside


Do you want to go stroll down the financial street?

Our clothes might get soaked, but the buildings sleep


And there's no one pushing for a place

As we end up at an easy pace


And I want to walk around with you

And I want to walk around with you

I want to walk around with you


Just you, just you, just you...
