Micah Green - August lyrics

He follows me back to my car in the dark every day And now he’s here helping write all the words I can’t say He’s gone but not far away She always knew all the things he could do for her sake And now she’s a messenger carrying all that he made It’s dawn and she’s wide awake It’s got to be someone April fool’s run wild But you’re my favorite child In August you’ll be smiling It’s no mistake he waited to see the day Eight years later I’m driving our two kids to school And they’ll never wonder why they so much like you Gone but not far away It’s got to be someone April fool’s run wild But you’re my favorite child In August you’ll be smiling It’s no mistake he waited to see the day Waited to see the day
