Mmm, mmm-mmm, mmm
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'll take all of my, all of my, all of my wasted love
And turn it into wine, into wine, into wine in my cup, woah
** 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 you're scorned
( * , ** )
Oh, dear August (oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh, August
Oh, no, no, dear August (oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh, August
( ** )
