August
August Memories: Love, Regret, and the Heat of Summer
Lyrics
We'd still be sleeping with the covers off
We would still be sleeping without covers.
Cause your apartment would be way too hot
Because your apartment would be excessively hot.
You'd still be laughing from the driver's seat
You would still be laughing while driving.
Leaning over at every red light just to kiss me
Leaning over at red lights to kiss me.
My bed wouldn't feel so cold
My bed wouldn't feel as cold.
I wouldn't be wondering why I let you go, oh
I wouldn't be questioning why I let you go.
If it was August, you'd still be calling
If it were August, you would still be calling.
We'd still be falling into each other
We would still be falling into each other.
If I could take time and turn it back
If I could turn back time, I'd head for the summer's heat.
I'd be heading right for the heat of the summer
I'd be heading right for the heat of the summer.
And there's nothing I can do about it now
There's nothing I can do about it now.
But I can't shake the thought that if somehow
But I can't shake the thought that somehow.
I could relive August one more time
If I could relive August once more.
I think I'd get it right
I think I'd get it right.
Fast-forward to early November and
Fast-forward to early November, and I'm replaying regretful words.
I'm still playing back all the words I wish I hadn't said
Words I wish I hadn't said.
Cause all our plans turned into could've beens
Because all our plans turned into could've beens.
And your tee shirt and the pictures and the hurt are all that I've got left
Your tee shirt, pictures, and hurt are all that I've got left.
But if it was August, you'd still be calling
If it were August, you would still be calling.
We'd still be falling into each other
We would still be falling into each other.
If I could take time and turn it back
If I could turn back time, I'd head for the summer's heat.
I'd be heading right for the heat of the summer
I'd be heading right for the heat of the summer.
And there's nothing I can do about it now
There's nothing I can do about it now.
But I can't shake the thought that if somehow
But I can't shake the thought that somehow.
I could relive August one more time
If I could relive August once more.
I think I'd get it right
I think I'd get it right.
I, I'd go back to the night I ran out
I would go back to the night I ran out.
I'd turn the car around
I'd turn the car around.
I, I'll never have another chance now
I'll never have another chance now.
But if it was August, you'd still be calling
If it were August, you would still be calling.
We'd still be falling into each other
We would still be falling into each other.
If I could take time and turn it back
If I could turn back time, I'd head for the summer's heat.
I'd be heading right for the heat of the summer
I'd be heading right for the heat of the summer.
And there's nothing I can do about it now
There's nothing I can do about it now.
But I can't shake the thought that if somehow
But I can't shake the thought that somehow.
I could relive August one more time
If I could relive August once more.
Oh, if I could relive August one more time
-I think I'd get it right
I think I'd get it right.
