------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cruel Summer - Bananarama ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Half-step down VERSE 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 CHORUS 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've gone VERSE 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 CHORUS 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've gone You're not the only one It's a cruel ... cruel ... cruel summer Leaving meeeeee ... leaving me here on my own It's a cruel ... it's a cruel ... cruel summer Now you've gone It's a cruel ... cruel summer Leaving me here on my own It's a cruel ... cruel summer Now you've gone You're not the only one It's a cruel ... cruel ... cruel summer Leaving meeeeee ... leaving me here on my own It's a cruel ... it's a cruel ... cruel summer Now you've gone ENJOY :
