創作背景
Glass Animals主唱戴夫·貝利在失去一個很重要的人後冒出了該曲的靈感,他記下了對人隨時間改變的反思,認為有些人在發生改變中,逐漸失去失去了其本質,變成另一個人的附帶品。而他自己也有這種體會,有時候當他看到鏡子裡的自己,覺得自己很糟糕,而他的很多朋友也經歷過這樣的情況。於是戴夫·貝利創作《Heat Waves》,而歌詞就是在唱這種情形,包含幻象、幻覺那類的東西。最終,該曲在2018年5月的一個深夜中創作完成。
歌曲歌詞
Last night all I think about is you
Don't stop baby you can walk through
Don't wanna but I think about you
You know that I'm never gonna do
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat heat waves I'm swimmin' in a mirror
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat heat waves I'm swimmin' in a
Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Usually I put somethin' on TV
So we never think about you and me
But today I see our reflections clearly
In Hollywood layin' on the screen
You just need a better life than this
You need somethin' I can never give
Fake water all across the road
It's gone now the night has come but
Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
You can't fight it you can't breathe
You say somethin' so lovin' but
Now I gotta let you go
You'll be better off in someone new
I don't wanna be alone
You know it hurts me too
You look so broken when you cry
One more and then I say goodbye
Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
I just wanna know what you're dreamin' of
When you sleep and smile so comfortable
I just wish that I could give you that
That look that's perfectly un-sad
Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat heat waves I'm swimmin' in a mirror
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat heat waves I'm swimmin' in a mirror
