Hall & Oates - "August Day" lyrics

(Words by Sara Allen Music by Daryl Hall) 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 air hangs out, hesitates to carry a thought The drone of clever talk just stopped And the sky colored heavy gray Away from me August Day Barefoot blues watch and wait till suppertime Will a smile break through Stir the dust and carve a rhyme Distant thunder and the slow dance And say that I love you Static lightning sky daring me to take a chance And the sky colored heavy gray August Day
