August Songtext

von Micah Green

He follows me back to my car in the dark every day
And now he's here helping write all the words I can't say
He's gone but not far away

She always knew all the things he could do for her sake
And now she's a messenger carrying all that he made
It's dawn and she's wide awake
It's got to be someone

April fool's run wild
But you're my favorite child
In August you'll be smiling
It's no mistake he waited to see the day

Eight years later I'm driving our two kids to school
And they'll never wonder why they so much like you
Gone but not far away
It's got to be someone

April fool's run wild
But you're my favorite child
In August you'll be smiling
It's no mistake he waited to see the day
Waited to see the day
