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 saying

(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

Leaving 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

Leaving 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

(Leaving me), leaving 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



Gonna feel only it was



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

(Leaving me) leaving 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

(Leaving me), leaving me here on my own

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

Now
