Cruel Summer

Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning

I sit around

Trying to smile but the air is so heavy and dry

Strange voices are sayin' (what did they say?)

Things I can't understand

It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand

It's a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer

Leavin' me here on my own

It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer

Now you're gone

The city is crowded, my friends are away

And I'm on my own

It's too hot to handle, so I got to get up and go

It's a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer

Leavin' me here on my own

It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer

Now you're gone

Gonna feel only it was

It's a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer

(Leavin' me) leavin' me here on my own

It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer

Now you're gone

It's a cruel, cruel summer

Leaving me here on my own

It's a cruel, cruel summer

Now you're gone

You're not the only one

It's a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer

(Leavin' me) leavin' me here on my own

It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer

Now you're gone

You're not the only one

It's a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer

(Leavin' me) leavin' me here on my own

It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer

Now you're gone

You're not the only one

It's a cruel...
