[Verse 1] Ice in the cup Your hand on my knee Bus windows fogged up And you won’t look at me Your shirt’s half-untucked Your laugh hits and leaves I’m biting my tongue Like I know what it means [Pre-Chorus] Say you want me near Then you disappear Pull me like a spark Then you leave a mark [Chorus] Cruel summer Cruel summer You got me burning All for one more number Cruel summer Cruel summer Say my name soft Then you turn it under [Verse 2] Salt on your skin Rain on the curb We talk in the dark Then you take the word You call late-night And I fall again I know where it goes Still I let you in [Pre-Chorus] Say you want me near Then you disappear Pull me like a spark Then you leave a mark [Chorus] Cruel summer Cruel summer You got me burning All for one more number Cruel summer Cruel summer Say my name soft Then you turn it under [Bridge] Hands on the glass Heart in my throat You keep me close Then you let me go If you want out Just say it plain Don’t dress it up Don’t call it rain [Final Chorus] Cruel summer Cruel summer You got me burning All for one more number Cruel summer Cruel summer Say my name soft Then you turn it under Cruel summer Cruel summer I’m still here waiting For the spark to come under
