It's been a cruel summer
The sun has been hit by the storms
My darling was bewitched by another
Her black magic tricks stole his heart
I saw her scheming as she twirled her hair
So long and black like the storms
She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning
I muttered a lonesome goodbye
It's been a cruel summer
The kind that makes grown men turn pale
My heart had been crushed by another
I could not compete with black hair
I saw her scheming as she twirled her hair
So long and black like the storms
She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning
I muttered a lonesome goodbye
She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning
I muttered a lonesome goodbye
