At seventeen we fell in love
High school sweethearts,
love was so brand new
We took the vows of man and wife
Forever, for life
I remember how we made our way
A little patience, the time we pray

Chorus:
I can't imagine that this love is through
Feelin' the pain, boy when you lose
Because it's too hot, too hot, too hot baby

Gotta run for shelter
Gotta run for shade
It's too hot, too hot, too hot baby
We gotta cool this anger
What a mess we made
So long ago you were my love
Oh my love

Flyin' high we never took the time
To stop and feel the need
Funny how those years go by
Changing you, and changing me
I remember love's fever
In our hearts, boy and in our minds

Chorus

Feeling the pain

Because it's too hot, too hot, it's too hot baby
Gotta run for shelter
Gotta run for shade
It's too hot, too hot, baby
Gotta cool this anger
From this mess that we've made
It's too hot, too hot, baby
Gotta run for shelter
Gotta run for shade...
