● 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 cold to comfort this heat has got
Right out of hand

It’s a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It’s a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Now you’re gone
You’re not the only one
It’s a cruel

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, and go

It’s a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It’s a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Now you’re gone
You’re not the only one

It’s a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It’s a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Now you’re gone
You’re not the only one

Now don’t you leave me
Now don’t you leave me
Now don’t you leave me
Come on, come on

Now don’t you leave me
Now don’t you leave me
Well don’t you leave me
Come on, come on

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

It’s a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It’s a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Now you’re gone
You’re not the only one

It’s a cruel, cruel summer
It’s a cruel, (it’s a cruel) cruel summer
It’s a cruel , cruel summer (leaving me)
It’s a cruel, (it’s a cruel) cruel summer
It’s a cruel summer

Yes, it's the year 2024, and I'm still listening to this simply incredible song. Only because it holds a special place in my heart, and I will cherish it for ages to come, love it! ❤❤❤

I love Ace of Base and this is one of my favorite songs.

I love the original 80's song and this 90's version does it justice.

Que energía tan bacana la que proyecta esta agrupación.

Oh man I loved this song growing up. Thanks to my older sister I had listened to all of Ace of Base' songs. When this dropped it was the song for the summer absolute hit!

Truly an awesome tune. I love this version. Truly Awesome.

Every Summer i sing this song. Originally sung Bananarama back in retro 80's. But Ace Of Base has sung it even better 90's style.
