And if i knew more about fabric i'd be better able to describe your dress
i just remember it was blue and it made you stand out from the rest
and we were sitting on a beach somewhere
you had flowers in your hair
the sun was sinking down into the sea
And though we must have talked for hours i can't remember what was said
as all the words i should have used on you kept bouncing 'round my head
you know i tried so hard to be so cool
tried harder still not to play the fool
'cause something told me we were meant to be
But like most things of flesh and bone you had to slip away
somehow i wasn't meant to have you then, not even for a day
i tore my heart and skin out thinking about you,
suffered through a life lived without you,
hoping you'd come back when it was time
But it'll be a cold day in august by the time i know what's going on
and while the meantime weighs upon us i can act like nothing's wrong
i'll just keep spitting lyrics into the rain
'til the fates say i can see you again
and we can maybe make up for lost time
The problem with my heart is i can't keep the thing in line
i'll spend an afternoon beside you and i'll need to make you mine
i wish that there was something i could say
to make you stay but that's just the way
it works sometimes and i won't shed no tears
'cause it'll be a cold day in august by the time i know what's going on
and while the meantime weighs upon us i can act like nothing's wrong
i'll just keep spitting lyrics into the rain
'till the fates say i can see you again
and we can maybe make up for lost time
