Walking down the street, memories in the heat Feeling like the world was ours to keep But little did we know, it was just a show A cruel summer, leaving us low (Oh-oh-oh) the days were long, the nights so warm (Oh-oh-oh) but behind the Sun, a hidden storm (Oh-oh-oh) we danced with laughter, we played with fire (Oh-oh-oh) but in the end, it was all a liar Cruel summer of 2006, our hearts were torn and so it seems We believed in love, but it was just a dream Cruel summer of 2006, the memories they still sting We were young and foolish, caught in love's wicked wings (oh-oh-oh)
