Hot August Night Lyrics - Roots & Wings - Vaya Con Dios

The only I'll get to keep 

Are those lines on my face 

Waves rolling on the shore 

The music they make 

Mermaids doomed by the sea 

Of tears they have cried 

Secrets we once revealed 

The blue of your eyes 

And those hot August nights

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

Your voice echoed by the wind 

And how it disappeared 

Hopes we tore limb from limb 

Out of ignorance and fear 

Spirits haunting my dreams 

The turning of the tide 

Truth the fools sometimes speak 

The lures and the lies 

And those hot August nights 

Those mad dogs that were sleeping 

In the corners of your soul 

Woke up and started barking 

As if they knew that it was time to go 

By the pier, sirens howled 

Sailors waved goodbye 

And I never thought I'd lose you 

On that hot August night 

Photos 

No, I never thought I'd lose you 

On that hot August night 

I sit alone by the fire 

It's raining outside 

The Tennessee River is swollen 

There's peace in my heart 

Everything now is different 

The tears have gone by 

They're flowing with the current 

Under Alabama skies 

No, I never thought I'd lose you 

On that hot August night
