Jim Ed Brown - Arms of August lyrics

When July and then August came A quiet girl and strain She drifted in on the midnight wind And never told her name. But I had no need for questions When she gave her love to me I knew that I would Always wanna be. In the arms of August Waiting for the dawn Lying there beside her Wrapped in August warm. She was autumn golden Like the falling leaves And it was heaven holding August close to me. Now the sun won't warm the frozen sky And I feel like crying A love that runs from winter winds Can leave a body dying. If I could just call August band And listen to her sing Winter then would seem Like early spring. In the arms of August Waiting for the dawn Lying there beside her Wrapped in August warm. She was autumn golden Like the falling leaves And it was heaven holding August close to me...
