August Lyrics by Johnny Orlando

The Ride

2024

[Intro]
Can we be honest?
It's not what we wanted
You ruined August for me

[Verse 1]
Sunrise is jealous of your hazel eyes
The way that you look under the pale moonlight
Drivin' your car, sun on your skin
You are the view I'm takin' in
Dreadin' the moment that we said goodnight
If we stayed right here, we could've gotten it right
God only knows what it could've been
Said we would talk, but we never did

[Pre-Chorus]
You know my favorite silhouette
Was you in your little summer dress
We were good, so fucking good and then it was over
I don't miss you, just who we were
You're probably saying something similar
I was on my way downtown and I knew it was over

[Chorus]
Can we be honest?
It's not what we wanted
You ruined August for me
For me
Can we be honest?
Summer is haunted
You ruined August for me
For me

[Verse 2]
Girl nah
I don't dream I can't sleep this off
Still can't see a picture of us
Your words still haunt me (Your words still haunt me)
But I still read it all
If you're happy, I don't wanna know
If you see me, go on like we're strangers again
How does it feel? Only a dream, it wasn't real

[Pre-Chorus]
You know my favorite silhouette
Was you in your little summer dress
We were good, so fucking good and then it was over
I don't miss you, just who we were
You're probably saying something similar
I was on my way downtown and I knew it was over

[Chorus]
Can we be honest?
It's not what we wanted
You ruined August for me
Can we be honest?
Summer is haunted
You ruined August for me
For me
