Hot Summer Nights

When you get out of the hospital
 Let me back into your life
 I can't stand what you do
 I'm in love with your eyes
 And when you get out of the dating bar
 I'll be here to get back into your life
 I can't stand what you do
 I'm in love with your eyes
 I can't stand what you do
 Sometimes I can't stand you
 It makes me think about me
 That I'm involved with you
 ... But I'm in love with this power that shows through in your eyes
 I go to bakeries all day long
 There's a lack of sweetness in my life
 And there's pain inside
 You can see it in my eyes
 There is pain inside
 You can see it in my eyes
 It makes me think about me
 That I've lost my pride
 ... But I'm in love with this power that resides in your eyes
 You live in modern apartments
 Well I've even got scared once or twice
 Last time I walked down your street
 There were tears in my eyes
 Well now these streets we all know
 They help us cry when we're alone late at night
 Don't you love them too?
 Is that where you got your eyes?
 Oh I can't stand what you do
 Sometimes I can't stand you
 It makes me think about me
 How I'm involved with you
 ... But I'm in love with this power that shows through in your eyes
 Your world---it is beautiful
 I'll take the subway to your suburb sometimes
 I'll seek out the things that
 must've been magic to you little girl mind
 Now as a little girl you must've been magic
 I still get jealous of your old boyfriends in the suburbs sometimes
 And when I walk down your street
 There'll probably be tears in my eyes
 (I knew it would happen)
 I can't stand what you do
 Sometimes I can't stand you
 It makes me think about me
 That I'm involved with you
 ... But I'm in love with this power that shows through in your eyes
 So when you get out of the hospital
 Let me back into your life
 I can't stand what you do
 But I'm in love with your eyes
