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
(Ah, what did they say?)
Things I can't understand
It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of handIt's a cruel, cruel summer
(Cruel)
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
(It's a cruel)
Now you're gone
You're not the only one
It's a cruelThe city is crowded
My friends are away and I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle
So I gotta get up and go, and goIt's a cruel, cruel summer
(Cruel)
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
(It's a cruel)
Now you're gone
You're not the only oneIt's a cruel, cruel summer
(Cruel)
(Leaving me)
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
(It's a cruel)
