August Carol Lyrics by Kestrel

Kestrel

0

I was alone one night
\nA hand took my shoulder
\nShe stood before me with her hair like silver firelight
\nShe had such a way that
\nI couldn't say exactly what she said to me
\nBut she asked if I would follow my dizzy head
\nJust said, "Yes"
\n
\nMy head was aching with a pain like a furnace
\nI realized that I can't live the old way now again
\nLet me go away now
\nI see the day when I'll be right again, you see
\nIt was all I really needed to find again
\nLet me live
\n
\nMy breath began to fade there
\nI saw mistakes I madе there
\nThe ruin liеs before me
\nThank God they never saw me
\nAll of the people in an August Carol with me
\n
\nShe let me see the nights I lied to my good friend
\nAnd all the many things I'd done and times I'd run away
\nWell I just had to ask then
\nPlease let me live my life again
\nBecause you know I've got nothing left to love for
\nNow I can see what I really am\n\n
