His name was August
And he came in like a flood
He whirled around and round
And drowned me up in every kind of love
He took me over
He took me to the world
He took me in and out and up
Until I was a different girl
Thats not what I was told when
I learned how to love you
Cause I was never taught that
Perfect love could end
He stands right beside me
But hes farther than the sun
But his light still keeps me warm
It still keeps me burned
Thats not what i was told when
I learned how to love you
Cause I was never taught that
Perfect love could end
And now that its over
All I can seem to think
Is how to love someone with every part of me
Cause thats what I was told when
I learned how to love you
Cause I was never taught that
Perfect love could end
Thats not what I was told when
I learned how to love you
Cause I was never taught that
Perfect love could end
