The Fault of Lovers in August
Sing me a song of the flowers that grow
Of the humid breeze as it blows
And the stream smoothly flows
The footsteps slow
On this summer night
Hold me close in the moment’s heat
Your mouth sweet
My heart beats
Above us the stars
The moment is ours
Forget where we are
Just tell me your secrets of forests deep
Of mountains steep
Distant cities asleep
And I will close my eyes
Pretend with me that this is forever
An endless endeavor
A mistake we can somehow make clever
For moments pass
Warmth does not last
The world moves too fast
Too soon looking back
And now it is cold out and it is just me
Life suddenly free
I am lost at sea
Salt water spout
Logic crushing doubt
Emptiness throughout
Echoing shouts
Yet it is silent
Oh together to be
All of me pleas
I know you agree
It is the reality we tried not to foresee
