"Hot Summer" lyrics

I was alone
In the boarded up streets
The closed signs swung like a poem
Here where the street sweepers sleep

It was a hot summer
I was feeling cool
There was no one there knowin'
I was lookin' for you

Well the bars were all empty
And the pavements were cracked
And the river ran wild
So I was fast on its track

It was a hot summer
I sang out of tune
There was no one there knowin'
I was just a fool

I've got burgundy blood
A tiger stone in my boot
Hip flask in my pocket
We could dance on the roof

It was a hot summer
And I'm just a fool
There was no one there knowing
I was looking for you

On the other side
On the other side of the wild and true sages
On the other side
On the other side of you

It was a hot summer
I was just a fool
I knew it right then
But there was nothing to do
