Come with me you said

That sunny day in August

We were young and most of all

Unknowing and unaware

Of what life would be like

What life would bring

I came with you

That sunny day in August

I was absolutely smitten

And most of all in love

With the way life was going

And I didn’t know it yet then

But I was in love with you

That sunny day in August

You made me promise you

That we would always

Be there for each other

That we would always stay friends

And so I promised

That sunny day in August

That friends

Was what we would be

That friends

Was what we would stay

And now, many summers later

It’s another sunny day in August

And you’re married

To a lovely and beautiful wife

Or at least that’s what I’ve heard

From your friendships that have lasted

We don’t talk anymore

On this sunny day in August

But all I think about is you

And the promise we made years ago

When we were young

Unknowing and unaware

That life could be so different

From that sunny day in August

Many many years ago
