Verse 1

Say a prayer

The summer nights are dead

The fall is coming

We were careless hearts

Who got caught up in this

You were shy

To the night you drove me wild

And you crashed into me

And I won't lie

I wish it lasted a lifetime

Refrain 1

Please stay-ay-ay

Won't you stay-ay-ay

Tonight

Chorus 1

Breathe in deep

And say goodbye

The saddest song

I'll ever write

For anyone anytime

Breathe in deep

Before I say

I can feel us slip away

You're almost gone

You're good as gone

Break

August is over

(Repeat Intro once)

Verse 2

Now we wait

Cause August had to end

All our bags are packed

Just two broken hearts

That got caught up in this

I deny

That tomorrow you'll be gone

And so far from me

It's something strange

Never love the same way

(Repeat Refrain and Chorus 1 except last line)

Bridge

We can try to drown it out

But it never stops breathing

We can take it all in

But it never slows down

We've come down from that cloud

Refrain 2

Please stay-ay-ay

Won't you stay-ay-ay

Please stay-ay-ay

What you gotta say you want

ohhh ohh ohh

Chorus 2

Breathe in deep

And say goodbye

The saddest song

I'll ever write

For anyone anytime

Breathe in deep

Before I say

I can feel us slip away

You're almost gone

You're good as gone

Break

August is over

Outro

guitar 2 as intro

We're not the reason

August is over
