Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My heart is melting, 'cause you're hot like the summer heat
One night is all we got, and there's no time to stop
We think about the "should we or should we not"s
And I know that you got a man
But I'm here so put me in your plans
I'll be what you need tonight,
And I'm never gonna see you again
I wanna (do-op, do-op)
Lets make it happen, shawty (do-op, do-op)
It's got to be now (do-op, do-op)
Even though we shouldn't
Summer girl, you're right for me
No need to take it slow, because soon I gotta go
Wanna get your number and I'm feeling you, really though
You know my game is tight, and now the time is right
Gotta take advantage of our one summer night
And I know that you got a man
But I'm here so put me in your plans
I'll be what you need tonight,
And I'm never gonna see you again
(do-op, do-op)
Lets make it happen, shawty (do-op, do-op)
It's gotta be now (do-op, do-op)
Even though we shouldn't
Summer girl, you're right for me
Sing it again now
(do-op, do-op)
Lets make it happen, shawty (do-op, do-op)
It's got to be now (do-op, do-op)
Even though we shouldn't
Summer girl, you're right for me
So before we say so long, before we end tonight
Girl it can't be wrong, if it feels so right
So I'll be me, shawty, you be you
We gotta make it right
Check it, check it, bounce
Let me see you move
Come on now, show me just how you do
Come on baby, shake it shake it shake it for me
Nobody else around, its just you and me
Yeah, bounce
Let me see you move
Come on now, show me just how you do
Come on baby, shake it shake it shake it for me
Nobody else around, its just you and me
I wrote a melody all about a girl like a summer breeze
I'll never see her again
Sing it again now
(do-op, do-op)
Lets make it happen, shawty (do-op, do-op)
It's got to be now (do-op, do-op)
Even though we shouldn't
Summer girl, you're right for me
Sing it again now
(do-op, do-op)
Lets make it happen, shawty (do-op, do-op)
It's got to be now (do-op, do-op)
Even though we shouldn't
Summer girl, you're right for me
I wrote a melody all about a girl like a summer breeze
I'll never see her again

I'll never see her again
I know that I won't see her again
