    August Day

    by: Hall & Oates

    I saw the sun, though it didn't shine
    Gave up no shadows, gave out no way to know the time
    No wind to blow the silver leaves
    The drone of clever talk just stopped
    The air hangs out, hesitates to carry a thought
    Away from me
    And the sky colored heavy gray
    August Day
    Stir the dust and carve a rhyme
    Barefoot blues watch and wait till supper time
    Will a smile break through
    Distant thunder and the slow dance
    Static lightning sky daring me to take a chance
    And say, "I love you"
    And the sky colored heavy gray
    August Day
    August Day
    And the sky colored heavy gray
    August Day
