Cruel Summer

Hot summer streets & the pavements are burning
I sit around
Trying to smile
But the air is so heavy & 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 summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone

The city is crowded, my friends are away & I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle so I got to get up & go

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 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 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 summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one
