August Soon

Losing my day as the time lets run

Where the moon gives way to the morning sun

Turn in my bed as I hear that crow

He’s the first to ask and the last to know

Brother of mine don’t waste no sleep

He got streets to walk and a girl to meet

Taking my time as I wake up slow

Drawing me out is a morning glow

When the winter lays in ruin

And the clouds all part for good

When the sun is high at noon

It’ll be warmer too

It’ll be August soon

Why on earth you let the fire die?

You said the nights are warm and the skies are bright

Brother, will you tell me why the embers glow?

You said they lost their light, but they still got hope

You said they lost their light, but they still got hope

When the winter lays in ruin

And the clouds all part for good

When the sun is high at noon

It’ll be warmer too

It’ll be August soon

When the winter lays in ruin

And the clouds all part for good

When the sun is high at noon

It’ll be warmer too

It’ll be August soon

Sure as the sky is blue

It’ll be August soon
