Cruel Summer

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning, I sit around Trying to smile, but the air is too heavy and dry [Verse 2] Strange voices are saying (What did they say?) Things I don't understand It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand [Chorus 1] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus 1] 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 [Bridge] I'm not the only one [Chorus 2] 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 [Instrumental break]
