William J. Sullivan - End of August Lyrics

The same mistakes
Play out in different ways
I'm afraid, ashamed
I let go. Let go again
Broken promises
Regretting carelessness
Feeling nervous
I'm only asking for forgiveness
Intoxicated by something other than you
You never dreamed this when we were introduced
Close your eyes, it's not our night
I guess that plan worked out alright
Like playing records backwards, waking up in strange places
Distanced by an hour and a half separation
Small city girl and a big town boy gone
Can't seem to stop doing things wrong
I'd ask for a second chance but I lost that one
Maybe a third, but I think that's been done
Light skin smooth, determined with a big heart
The closer we get, the further we're apart
I barely know myself I need to take a step back
Check out the forest, take a couple deep breaths relax
I admit, you deserve better
But I hope we think of each other until forever
