Hot summer streets
And the pavements are burning
I sit aroundTrying to smile but the air is so heavy and 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), cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, (it's a cruel), cruel summer
Now you′re gone
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
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
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
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
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
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
