August In Bethany

(album: Understand This Is A Dream - 1999)

With the sounds of the ocean crashing
7:30 Friday evening
everything comes tumbling down
I choke back each tear that bleeds
I'd rather rest forever in your arms
I'd rather stay here than go but I know that
I should leave as i sit here helpless

Don't go you said you wouldn't
You said you wouldn't
Don't go you said you wouldn't
You said you couldn't

I think of our time together is it fading
am I dreaming everything you said lives on
I cherish our memories
I want to kiss your tears away tonight
it's hard to give up the one
You never thought you'd leave

Don't go don't go
Your eyes they see through my soul
don't go don't go
You say as I walk out your door

With the sounds of the ocean crashing
7:30 Friday evening
everything comes tumbling down
