Dear August

Mm, mm

Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm

Slowly, why's the morning come so slowly

When I got no one to hold me through the dark?

Patient, they tell me that love is patient

But it never wants to wait on my drunk heart

So I'll take all of my, all of my, all of my wasted love

And turn it into wine, into wine, into wine in my cup

Dear August, tell me that there's light

At the end of all this starless night

Dear August, please don't let me fall

'Cause I don't know where this road is headed anymore

Fading, now the summer heat is fading

I spend every evening praying for the dawn

Save me, looking for someone to save me

Give me everything you gave me, but you're scorned

So I'll take all of my, all of my, all of my wasted love

And turn it into wine, into wine, into wine in my cup

Dear August, tell me that there's light

At the end of all this starless night

Dear August, please don't let me fall

'Cause I don't know where this road is headed anymore

Oh, dear August (ooh)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, August

Oh, no, no, no, dear August (ooh)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, August

Ah, ah, ah

Dear August, tell me that there's light

At the end of all this starless night

Dear August, please don't let me fall

'Cause I don't know where this road is headed anymore
