August Is Over

Say a prayer
The summer nights are dead
The fall is coming
We were careless hearts
Who got caught up in this.

You were shy
To the night you drove me wild
And you crashed into me
And I won't lie
I wish it lasted a lifetime.

Please stay-ay-ay
Won't you stay-ay-ay
Tonight.

Breathe in deep
And say goodbye
The saddest song
I'll ever write
For anyone, anytime.

Breathe in deep
Before I say
I can feel us slip away
You're almost gone
You're good as gone
August is over.

Now we wait
Cause August had to end
All our bags are packed
Just two broken hearts
That got caught up in this.

I deny
That tomorrow you'll be gone
And so far from me
It's something strange
Never love the same way.

Please stay-ay-ay
Won't you stay-ay-ay
Tonight.

Breathe in deep
And say goodbye
The saddest song
I'll ever write
For anyone, anytime.

Breathe in deep
Before I say
I can feel us slip away
You're almost gone
You're good as gone.

We can try to drown it out
But it never stops breathing
We can take it all in
But it never slows down
We've come down from that cloud.

Well say-ay-ay
What you gotta say-ay-ay
Please say-ay-ay
What you gotta say
Whoa-a-oh-oh
Whoa-a-oh-oh.

Breathe in deep
And say goodbye
The saddest song
I'll ever write
For anyone, anytime.

Breathe in deep
Before I say
I can feel us slip away
You're almost gone
You're good as gone
August is over
We're not the reason
August is over.
