When August came around
I was too blind to see
The starlings in the moonlight
Or the larks upon the trees
The worry on the faces
Of those stood at my side
But God I see it tonight
Home
Take me home
The summer air was sweeter in July
Home
Take me home
You call me when I look up to the sky
The city never sleeps I hear
As I stumble to my bed
I look out for the northern star
All I see is rosy red
I remember starry nights
When all I saw was black and gold
The city never sleeps I was told
Home
Take me home
The summer air was sweeter in July
Home
Take me home
You call me when I look up to the sky
Home
Take me home
The summer air was sweeter in July
Home
Take me home
You call me when I look up to the sky
