♪ 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 take all of my, all of my, all of my wasted love ♪

♪ And turn it into wine, into wine, into wine in my cup ♪

♪ 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 your scorn ♪

♪ So I take all of my, all of my, all of my wasted love ♪

♪ And turn it into wine, into wine, into wine in my cup ♪

♪ Dear August ♪

♪ Tell me that there’s light ♪

♪ At the end of all this starless night ♪
