August Dreams Lyrics

Verse:
The only thing I can respect is the way you criticize
The only thing I welcome is a lack of goodbyes
The only thing I look forward to is how you cut me down to size
And the only thing I hate is that look in your eyes

It's the look that makes me wish that I was with you
But at the same time it tells me that I should get a clue
They say a paper cut is the worst of all the types of pain
But they've never watched you walk away into the wild blue terrain

Chorus:
I'm still standing here with a letter in my pocket
Telling you how much I miss your arms
It's the only place where I've felt alive
But I've wished and I've wished and I've wished
And the third time's not a charm

Verse:
Simple agonizing questions burn into my ears
â??Didn't you two like used to be best friends for many years?â?
Yes we did but times have changed and every thing is different
Cuz missing the way you laughed is how my summer has been spent

I pray for the sun to disappear from the sky above
Cuz it's melted away everything I've always dreamed of
August dreams of you and me never had a chance
I'll sit alone and wonder as you joke about romance

Chorus

Verse:
I'm terrified of the night
Darkness captures all my sight
Maybe you will reappear under the stars
And all these nightmares that once were dreams
Can be ours

Chorus
