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)
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
Gonna feel only it was
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
It`s a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It`s a cruel, cruel summer
Now you`re gone
Gonna feel only it was
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
Gonna feel only it was
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... ,
