I want so badly to live
I want so badly to live
Here on earth today
But it's forty-eight and climbing
On the hottest day
Heat rising
Heat rising
I think about a swim in Ontario’s waves
Just to cool my thoughts and maybe my face
But swimming never called me like walking alone
Boardwalk’s in silence, I make it my own
And every day I wish for rain
Hope in the clouds but hope's in vain]
I want so badly to live
Here on earth today
But it's forty-eight and climbing
On the hottest day
Heat rising
Heat rising
