Story Behind The Song
Christina (the lead singer of BREAKERBOX) wrote the lyrics from a very literal place. Remebering being about 16years old, in the summertime. Talking on the phone with the boy she liked, after hours on the phone, they still wanted to see eachother. He'd pull up to the street light on the corner, beep the car horn, she'd run out and jump in the car and they would drive around their town all night long. The summer air, the heat, and felt like nothing else mattered but them.

Lyrics
VERSE 1:
Think of your touch, and I go crazy.
Talking for hours, it doesnt faze me.
But, then you say "I need you baby" uh, huh.
Streetlight around the corner,
right by my house, you know you wanna.
Come take me out, i'll be there waiting uh, huh.
Lets go, Lets go, Lets go.
CHORUS:
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Bright Lights, big city.
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Your lookin' good, feeling' pretty.
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Come on take me baby, cause Im ready to go.
On a beautiful night in the Summertime.
VERSE 2:
Just for tonight, the world is open.
Your heart is racin', cause your just hopin'.
I'll let you in, and give you somethin' uh huh.
Just you and me, is all thats needed.
The stars are out- the air is heated.
Out of control, Im feelin' ready uh, huh.
Lets go, Lets go, Lets go.
CHORUS:
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Bright Lights, big city.
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Your lookin' good, feeling' pretty.
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Come on take me baby, cause Im ready to go.
On a beautiful night in the Summertime.
BRIDGE:
We dont have to go far.
We'll just get in your car and drive.
In the Summertime.
(BREAKDOWN)
They called the cops, the parties over.
You got your arm, around my shoulder.
I'll sneek you in, your sleepin' over uh huh.
Lets go, Lets go, Lets go.
CHORUS:
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Bright Lights, big city.
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Your lookin' good, feeling' pretty.
Oh, what a beautiful night.
Come on take me baby, cause Im ready to go.
Im ready to go in the Summertime.
