Heat of July Songtext
von Briscoe

Denver′s a drive we can do in a day
I made her promise we won't do more than that
I caught her eye through the side of the rearview
If you′re sleeping better, pull down your hat

In Heaven, she knows just how to make me a fool of a man
I've been driving nearly 500 miles

Smell of the rain burning up on the asphalt
Sweet as honey on the tip of my tongue
Long as the thunderclouds roll through the desert
I'll be holding my youth like a gun

′Cause Heaven, I know just how to patiently wait on the rain
We′ve hit 100 now for 25 days

While hot July keeps breaking in
Something about it makes me feel like I'm home
Days are getting long again
And the people start to moving real slow


But Heaven, I know just how to wait on the cool of the day
I′ve been living nearly half of my life
In the heat of July
The heat of July
The heat of July
In the heat of July

Like a hurricane makes its way down the coastline
We were making our way down the hall
Looking back, we were learning the hard way
If I think we were learning at all

Heaven, I know just how a heartache can burn in the sun
I was hoping she stayed until fall

While hot July keeps breaking in
Something about it makes me feel like I'm home
Days are getting long again
And the people start to moving real slow

Heaven, I know just how to wait on the cool of the day
I′ve been living nearly half of my life
In the heat of July
The heat of July
