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 (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 summer
leaving me, 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, cruel summer
now you're gone
you're not the only one
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
it's a cruel, cruel summer
leaving me, 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, cruel summer
now you're gone
you're not the only one
cruel summer
it's a cruel summer
cruel summer
it's a cruel, cruel summer
leaving me, 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, cruel summer
now you're gone
you're not the only one
cruel summer
it's a cruel summer
cruel summer
it's a cruel summer
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
leaving me, leaving me here on my own
it's a cruel, cruel summer
now you're gone
you're not the only one
leaving me, leaving me here on my own
it's a cruel, cruel summer
now you're gone
you're not the only one
it's too hot to handle, so I gotta get up and go
leaving me, leaving me here on my own
it's a cruel, cruel summer
now you're gone
you're not the only one
leaving me, 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 summer
cruel summer
leaving me, leaving me here on my own
it's a cruel, cruel summer
now you're gone
you're not the only one
leaving me, 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 summer
cruel summer
it's a cruel summer

This is exactly what being quarantined in the desert is like right now
describes my summer
I like this song. Luckily I never had a cruel summer :)
This song reminds me of the good times of summer, even though its about a depressing summer. All the things they talk about I love...the heat, being out on your own, and being able to do whatever you want.
nice remake but the original is still...so original
I LOVE this song. There's something about the summer that I LOVE more than anything, and this song really describes it. Like TrOoBaBiEe said it describes all I love about the summer - the heat, freedom, and endless possibilities.
When I listen to this song, summer suddenly comes out of my window, and I feel warm and excited,ready to go out and have fun... But at the same time it's such a sad song cause it describes,in a simple but true way, that summer is not endless,and it's cruel for that...
I think it's the only song I can still bear to listen to by them now.
What was that from VH1's "I Love the 90's"? "The Sign was that we're only going to be popular for another 5 minutes" lol
You know your band (or in this case 'group of entertainers') has hit a low point when it covers a Bananarama song.
