August
Katydid fiddling on a summer's eve Brown bats circle 'round the old house eaves I can taste the ocean on a cool salt breeze Blowing through a torn screen door
Can't believe I let the summer slip away again Like watermelon juice dripping down my chin There might be light enough for one last swim If we hurry on down to the shore
A fool would ask for more
Bullfrog thrumming like a banjo string Thought I heard a whippoorwill starting to sing As the moon spilled silver over everything But ain't that what the moon is for
Back porch drunk on a jug a red wine Picking on a tune with some friends of mine The music floating up into the bottlebrush pines Ain't nobody keeping score Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
A fool would ask for more
I ain't restless tonight I got you and the moon so bright Hey, I'm alright I'm alright
The laughter's still lingering in the evening air We'll clean the bottles up tomorrow they'll still be there Turn off the lights, let's go upstairs Careful of the creaking floor
Such a beautiful boy, he's a picture of peace Let's stand here a minute just watching him sleep God bless this little vigil we keep
A fool would ask for more
