"August" lyrics

Can we be honest?
It's not what we wanted
You ruined August for me

Sunrise is jealous of your hazel eyes
The way that you look under the pale moonlight
Driving the coast sun on your skin
You were the view I'm taking in
Dreading the moment that we said goodnight
If we stayed right here we could have gotten it right
God only knows what could have been
Said we would talk we never did

You know my favourite silhouette
Is you in your little summer dress
We were good so fucking good
And then it was over
I don't miss you. Just who we were
You're probably saying something similar
I was on my way downtown when I knew it was over

Can we be honest?
It's not what we wanted
You ruined August for me
For me
Can we be honest?
The summer is haunted
You ruined August for me
For me

Girl, no. I don't dream. I can't sleep this off
Still can't see a picture of us
Your words still haunt me
But I still read it all
If you're happy I don't want to know
If you see me go on like we're
Strangers again
How does it feel?
Only a dream. It wasn't real

You know my favourite silhouette
Is you in your little summer dress
We were good, so fucking good
And then it was over
I don't miss you. Just who we were
You're probably saying something similar
I was on my way downtown when I knew it was over

Can we be honest?
It's not what we wanted
You ruined August for me
For me
Can we be honest?
The summer is haunted
You ruined August for me
For me
