Bananarama - Cruel Summer - Live on TV Show American Bandstand - June 16th, 1984

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 sayin’ (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 Leavin’ 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 Leavin’ 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 (Leavin’ me) leavin’ 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
