In August Lyrics

In August, I couldn't help but notice

A fading of the kindness

You'd offered once with ease

September, you nearly lost your temper

A terrible pretender

I knew at once you wanted nothing more to do with me

Would you stay until the winter's gone

The sun is setting early, so pretend that you still want me

Keep the warmth between our bodies

Til the spring, then let me go

October, you finally said we're over

But as the days grew colder

You called to ask what's new

November, you told me I surrender

And so we'll stay together

It's easier to hold your tongue than face the cold alone

Would you stay until the winter's gone

The sun is setting early, so pretend that you still want me

Keep the warmth between our bodies

Til the spring, then let me go

Would you stay until the winter's gone

The sun is setting early, so pretend that you still want me

Keep the warmth between our bodies

Til the spring, then let me go

In summer, I'll find myself another

And hope that I can love her

Til winter comes again
