Cruel Summer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 (ah, what did they say?)
Things I can't understand
It's too close to 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 gotta get up and go, 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
You're not the only one
It's a 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
Now don't you leave me
Now don't you leave me
Well don't you leave me
Come on, come on
Now don't you leave me
Now don't you leave me
Well don't you leave me
Come on, come on
It's a 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, 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, cruel summer
It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer
It's a cruel, cruel summer (leaving me)
It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer
It's a cruel summer
