Drop tops, long hot nights and summer love

|
|
[Beyonce]
|
Out of all the guys that approached me
|
Walking 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 curiousity was to me
|
It was the fourth day of July
|
Looked in my eyes and saw that I
|
|
[Break - Beyonce]
|
I wanted more than just a man (man)
|
I needed a friend (I want a friend)
|
Someone I can talk to (oh)
|
Someone who'll really listen (yeah)
|
When you touched my hand (yeah yeah)
|
The sun got brighter then (brighter then)
|
Trusting you I closed my eyes
|
And felt our love begin
|
|
[Chorus - Beyonce]
|
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 (ohh)
|
|
[Beyonce]
|
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 with ya
|
Fill a house with ya pictures
|
Have a son for you, a little girl for me
|
Together we'll raise a family
|
|
[Break - Beyonce]
|
I wanted more then just a man
|
I needed a friend
|
You are my best friend (yeah)
|
Someone I could talk to
|
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
|
and felt our love begin
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[P. Diddy]
|
Yo let me holla at you for a sec
|
So what's in gonna be, him or me? (yeah)
|
We can cruise the world for pearls
|
And bare boots for girls
|
Summertime in the linen, fresh fruit
|
Livin the life that's forbidden for just you (let's go)
|
No worries you ain't gotta be stressed out
|
No hurries you ain't gotta be rushed out
|
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
|
And in your heart you's a "Child of Destiny" (that's right)
|
Them hot summers that we had especially
|
Love who you is girl, you bring out the best of me
|
And it's like that, you know it's like that (that's right)
|
And that's your plan, where's your hand let me ice that
|
You my heart ain't no chance you could fight that
|
The summertime, when you hot baby take that, take that
|
Yeah..
|
|
[Chorus]
