Bananarama - Cruel Summer Lyrics

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 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 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 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.

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, 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.
