On the burning summer shore No children laugh, no voices soar Waves are drifting, slow and wide Time just rolls with every tide The August sun is blazing high It scorches deep, I can’t deny It burns away your fading trace The shadow of your gentle face [Chorus] Baby, my midsummer heart is all burned inside Every time I think of you, the flames won’t hide Baby, my midsummer heart is burning for you If I hold you close, you’ll just fade from view [Verse 2 / Bridge] On the silent beach I stand Searching footprints in the sand Far away, a ship takes flight Sailing off into the night This love the sun has scorched for me I send it riding on the sea Pray the waves will find their way And bring my words to you someday [Chorus] Baby, my midsummer heart is all burned inside The sun keeps blazing, I’ve nowhere to hide Baby, my midsummer heart is burning for you Calling out your name as you fade from view [Outro] Baby, my midsummer heart is all burned inside The sun keeps blazing, like an endless tide Baby, my midsummer heart is burning for you I’ll keep on shouting my love so true
