Taylor Swift - august Lyrics




Salt air
+
And the rust on your door
+
I never needed anything more
+
Whispers
+
Of "Are you sure?"
+
"Never have I ever before"
+
But I can see us
+
Lost in the memory
+
August slipped away into a moment in time
+
'Cause it was never mine
+
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
+
August sipped away
+
Like a bottle of wine
+
'Cause you were never mine
+
Your back
+
Beneath the sun
+
Wishing I could write my name on it
+
Will you call when you're back at school?
+
I remember thinking I had you
+
But I can see us
+
Lost in the memory
+
August slipped away into a moment in time
+
'Cause it was never mine
+
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
+
August sipped away
+
Like a bottle of wine
+
'Cause you were never mine
+
Back when we were still changing for the better
+
Wanting was enough
+
For me, it was enough
+
To live for the hope of it all
+
Cancel plans just in case you'd call
+
And say "Meet me behind the mall"
+
So much for summer love, and saying "Us"
+
'Cause you weren't mine to lose
+
You weren't mine to lose
+
No
+
But I can see us
+
Lost in the memory
+
August slipped away into a moment in time
+
'Cause it was never mine
+
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
+
August sipped away
+
Like a bottle of wine
+
'Cause you were never mine, mine
+
'Cause you were never mine
+
Never mine
+
Do you remember?
+
Remember when I pulled up
+
And said "Get in the car"
+
And then canceled my plans
+
Just in case you'd call
+
Back when I was living for the hope of it all
+
For the hope of it all
+
"Meet me behind the mall"
+
(Remember when I pulled up)
+
(And said "Get in the car")
+
(And then canceled my plans)
+
(Just in case you'd call)
+
(Back when I was living for the hope of it all)
+
(For the hope of it all)
+
("Meet me behind the mall")
+
Remember when I pulled up
+
And said "Get in the car"
+
And then canceled my plans
+
Just in case you'd call
+
Back when I was living for the hope of it all
+
(For the hope of it all)
+
For the hope of it all
+
For the hope of it all
+
For the hope of it all
+
For the hope of it all
+

Taylor Swift - august Video
(Show video at the top of the page)


"August" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her eighth studio album, Folklore (2020).

A dream pop and guitar pop ballad, "August" features elements of soft rock in its guitars, strings, and vocal reverberation. In the lyrics, an unnamed female narrator expresses her sorrow over James, a 17-year-old boy who reconciles with Betty after a fleeting summer romance with her. She is a character involved in a love triangle depicted in three Folklore tracks, the other two being "Cardigan" (from Betty's perspective) and "Betty" (from James's perspective).

Music critics lauded the production and lyrics as captivating, and some deemed it a standout on Folklore and a career highlight for Swift.

Swift performed "August" live at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards in 2021 and included the song in the set list of her sixth concert tour, the Eras Tour (2023-2024).
