Dear August

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 take all of my, all of my, all of my

Wasted love

And turn it into wine, into wine, into wine

In my cup

Oh, 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 your scorn

So I take all of my, all of my, all of my

Wasted love

And turn it into wine, into wine, into wine

In my cup

Whoa, 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

Oh no, oh August

Oh no, no, dear August

Oh no, oh, August

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
