Lyrics
Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning as 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 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 you're not the only one, it's a cruel
The city is crowded, my friends are away, and I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle, so I've gotta get up and go
As in go home
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, you're not the only one
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, you're not the only one
It's a cruel
Hmm, now don't you leave me
Hmm, now don't you leave me
Now don't you leave me come on, come on
Hmm, now don't you leave me
Hmm, now don't you leave me
Now don't you leave me come on, come on
It's a cruel (cruel), cruel summer (cruel summer)
Leaving me here on my own (leaving me here all alone)
It's a cruel (it's a cruel), cruel summer (leave me here in this summer)
You're not the only one (you're not the only one)
It's a cruel (cruel), cruel summer (you're not the only one)
Leaving me here on my own (ooh-ooh)
It's a cruel (it's a cruel), cruel summer (cruel summer)
Now you're gone, you're not the only one
It's a cruel (cruel), cruel summer (cruel summer)
It's a cruel summer
It's a cruel, cruel summer (cruel summer)
It's a cruel summer
