Cruel Summer ('89 Swing Beat Dub) Lyrics - Bananarama

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
