Here I sit in my
lonely room touching everything she touched I'm a poet without a tune, a painter without a brush Everyone calls her August, but I call her mine Though I need her and want her so, to myself I'm only lyin' Because I know she belongs to him And I will never see her again She left along with the summer wind And the scatterin' dust August We lived and died together, of time we never kept track I knew I'd love her forever but soon he'd be comin' back And now I feel her here deep inside The warm and innocent, sweet surprise That comes but once in each of our lives So remember I must August August, if you can hear me now Girl whatever you do Know you're always near me now And I'll always love you So here I sit in my lonely room, touching everything she touched I'm a poet without a tune, a painter without a brush And now when winter snow starts to fall I reach for her and then I recall She left along with the summer wind And the scatterin' dust August August |
