August and September
Lyricist:Matt Johnson
Suddenly last summer I started going out of my head In a tiny hotel room Lyin' naked on a bed
I knew what you were doing, and I knew what you'd done Your life with me was ending, your new life had begun But I was cursing your name, and I was cursing that room And I was praying for the strength to stop loving you
I started writing you the letter Which turned into the book I was gonna reach across the oceans And force you to look
What kind of man was I? Who would sacrifice your happiness to satisfy his pride? What kind of man was I? Who would delay your destiny to appease his tiny mind?
Then you came back to me and I went down on one knee With a glint in my eyes and a rose between my teeth And I pushed out my tongue for you to see That I'd been dying of a thirst for your company And then you quenched my loneliness with your tears And our clothes fell away as we rolled back the years Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But we couldn't deny it because we could not admit it
If our love too strong to die Or we were just too weak to kill it? Was our love too strong to die? Or were we just too weak to kill it?
Every moment in that room I closed my eyes in prayer Every moment I awoke I clenched my teeth in prayer
What kind of man was I? Who would sacrifice your happiness to satisfy his pride? What kind of man was I? Who would delay your destiny to appease his tiny mind?
What kind of man was I? Who could delay your destiny to appease his achin' swollen pride? Who could delay your destiny to appease his screamin' little mind?
You're mine You're mine You're mine ...
