Lyrics: BREATHIN’ FIRE IN THE CITY
HOT-BED FOR A MILLION REFUGEES
I COULD FEEL SOMETHIN’ WAS COMIN’
MIDNIGHT STRUCK AND IT WAS CALLIN’ ME

THE FEVER RAN HIGH UNDER BLACK STARLIT SKIES
WELL YOU MET MY EYES AND I KNEW - RIGHT THEN I JUST KNEW

TIRES SCREAMED INTO THE PAVEMENT
SMOKE WAS RISIN’ IN THE STICKY AIR
ALL AROUND UNFRIENDLY FACES
WHO’D BELIEVE I’D EVER FIND YOU THERE
BLOOD ON THE MOON GONNA BE ALRIGHT SOON
FEELS LIKE “HIGH NOON” IT’S SO HOT - PLACE IS SO DAMN HOT
CH: WILD SUMMER NIGHT
IN THE HOT GLOW OF A NEON LIGHT
TWO HEARTS IGNITE - I FOUND YOU, I FOUND YOU

IN THE WILD SUMMER NIGHT
AND THE HEAT CLIMBED TO A DIZZY HEIGHT
LIKE A DREAM TAKIN’ FLIGHT
ME AND YOU IN THE WILD SUMMER NIGHT


BET YOU CAME FOR SOME ADVENTURE
BET YOU CAME TO SEE THE OTHER SIDE
A CHANCE TO FIND THE UNEXPECTED
TAKE YOUR WORLD AND RIP IT OPEN WIDE
OR MAYBE YOU’RE HERE CUZ YOU GOT TO GET NEAR
TO SOMEONE ELSE HERE WHO WANTS IT TOO - YA I WANT IT TOO
CH: WILD SUMMER NIGHT
IN THE HOT GLOW OF A NEON LIGHT
TWO HEARTS IGNITE - I FOUND YOU, I FOUND YOU

IN THE WILD SUMMER NIGHT
AND THE HEAT CLIMBED TO A DIZZY HEIGHT
LIKE A DREAM TAKIN’ FLIGHT
ME AND YOU IN THE WILD SUMMER NIGHT
BR: I DON’T KNOW IF IT’S REAL
I JUST KNOW HOW FEELS - AND IT’S FEELIN’ SO RIGHT


WILD SUMMER NIGHT
IN THE HOT GLOW OF A NEON LIGHT
TWO HEARTS IGNITE - AND I FOUND YOU, I FOUND YOU

IN THE WILD SUMMER NIGHT
AND THE HEAT CLIMBED TO A DIZZY HEIGHT
LIKE A DREAM TAKIN’ FLIGHT
ME AND YOU IN THE WILD SUMMER NIGHT
(AD LIBS)
ME AND YOU IN THE WILD SUMMER NIGHT
