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
Thin~gs I~ can't understand
It's too close for comfort, this
Heat has got right out of hand
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me 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 summer
Leaving me leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one
The 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
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me 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 summer
Leaving me leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
Leaving me 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 summer
Leaving me leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
Cruel summer
