Glass Animals merupakan band rock indie asal Inggris yang dibentuk di Oxford pada tahun 2010. Grup band ini mengeluarkan karya-karya yang fantastis, termasuk salah satunya Heat Waves.
Arti lagu Heat Waves berpusat kepada sang vokalis, Dave Bayley yang tidak mampu melupakan kepergian seseorang yang spesial baginya. Tapi kenyataan justru sebaliknya.
Lagu ini mengingat kisah tentang pandemi COVID-19 di mana sang vokalis merindukan seseorang yang sangat dekat dengannya. Terlepas dari kenyataan bahwa kehidupan telah memisahkan mereka berdua.
Di lain itu, Dave juga menyiratkan pesan dari lagu ini tentang menjadi seorang yang tidak dapat menyelamatkan sesuatu. Contohnya, dalam sebuah hubungan.
Konsep lagu ini seperti terperangkap dalam suatu hubungan, sehingga seseorang kehilangan kontak dengan dirinya sendiri. Disebutkan bahwa lagu ini terinspirasi dari mantan pacarnya.
Heat Waves merupakan bagian dari album Dreamland yang dirilis pada 29 Juni 2022 setelah mereka merilis single lainnya, termasuk Your Love (Deja Vu) dan Tokyo Drifting.
Saat ini, lagu Heat Waves berada di posisi ke-10 top chart weekly Spotify. Kepopuleran lagu ini sukses didengarkan di platform streaming tersebut hingga 1,7 miliar kali oleh pengguna Spotify.
Lirik lagu Heat Waves - Glass Animals:
Road shimmer
Wiggling the vision
Heat heat waves
I'm swimming in a mirror
Road shimmer

Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been faking 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 faking me out
Can't make you happier now
Usually I put
Something on TV
So we never think
About you and me
But today I see
Our reflections
Clearly in Hollywood
Laying on the screen
You just need a better life than this
You need something 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 faking me out
Can't make you happier now
You can't fight it
You can't breathe
You say something so loving, but
Now I've got to 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'll say goodbye
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been faking 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 faking me out
Can't make you happier now
I just wonder what you're dreaming 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 faking me out
Heat waves been faking me out
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been faking 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 faking me out
Can't make you happier now
Road shimmer

Road shimmer
Wiggling the vision
Heat heat waves
I'm swimming in a mirror
