Lyric

I do not want tomorrow yet

The summer is not over yet

I lie awake and count the days

Wishing I could make them stay

But here I am

Still holding on

The fan is humming in my room

The sky outside is turning blue

My homework sits there in a pile

I have not really smiled in a while

Everyone seems ready to go

And I am the only one moving slow

So I whisper to myself tonight

Maybe it is alright

To feel a little scared inside

And take my time to say goodbye

Summer's end, summer's end

I am not ready but I am here again

I do not have to be okay today

I can miss the sun and still find my way

Hold the light a little longer

Let it go a little slower

It is okay, it is summer's end

The stores are selling notebooks now

The cicadas are quieting down

I keep my window open wide

Trying to hold the warm inside

My friends are texting see you soon

But I am scared of a crowded room

So I whisper to myself again

It is okay to not know when

This heavy feeling goes away

I can let it stay another day

Summer's end, summer's end

I am not ready but I am here again

I do not have to be okay today

I can miss the sun and still find my way

Hold the light a little longer

Let it go a little slower

It is okay, it is summer's end

The sun still knows my name

The sky is still the same

I carry every summer day

Inside me when I walk away

I do not have to leave it all behind

A piece of August lives in me tonight

Maybe I can go one day

One small step, one gentle day

I do not have to love the change

I only have to breathe again

And if tomorrow feels too tall

I will take it slowly, that is all

Summer's end, summer's end

I am not ready but I am here again

I do not have to be okay today

I can miss the sun and still find my way

Hold the light a little longer

Let it go a little slower

It is okay, it is summer's end

Summer's end, summer's end

I am not ready but I am here again

I do not have to be okay today

I can miss the sun and still find my way

Hold the light a little longer

Let it go a little slower

It is okay, it is summer's end

Summer's end

Summer's end

It is okay

It is okay

I am still here

I am still here

Goodnight, August
