Close the door and leave me inside.
I'll miss the fireworks burning in those eyes.
Remember the songs that we used to sing?
Come August I'll still be singing.
Don't be the one to fall out of line.
Watch the blue roses fall from your hands.
Remember summer when all had second chances?
Someday you'll see.
Come August, I'll still be singing.
Don't be the one to say goodbye.
I've gotta get out of here.
You're so cold.
I've gotta get out of here.
Someday those scribbled lines will be straight.
Conversations will never bare your name.
August came and left town
You're such a beautiful sound.
I remember the days when you used to call my name.
I was so blind to think you'd be the one.
Blue roses on her tongue.
You were a beautiful sound.
You were such a beautiful sound.
Don't be the one to fall out of line.
Don't be the one to say goodbye.
I've gotta get out of here.
You're so cold.
I've gotta get out of here.
It's what you wanted.
I'll miss the fireworks burning in those eyes.

Blue roses traditionally signify mystery or attaining the impossible. They are believed to be able to grant the owner youth or grant wishes.
blue roses are symbolic of miracles or achieving things thought to be unattainable. a "true blue" rose can not ever be found in nature--they're only made by dyeing a white rose blue. some colours of roses found in nature were once though to be blue, but they are actually more of a mauve or indigo colour. a blue rose in nature is deceitful; perhaps the blue roses in the song signify a relationship that turned into something other than what it seemed to be.
I think maybe hewas just trying to cover up what the songs really about.
Or maybe he didn't write it?
"Come August, I'll still be singing." shows that he didn't want the romance to end at the summer, but then the second half of the song is about him getting over her.
After reading the blog though, I'm not sure if his anger is directed at the girl at home, or towards the Summer girl for ending their romance.
Still an absolutely amazing song though, love it loads, makes me upset though!
this kind of reminds me of the glass menagerie. is that where the name is from?
The Blue Roses - This song is probably my favorite song on the cd... Our next cd will have more slower songs like this on it.. While i was living in Cleveland, TN i went thru alot of hard times.. There was this girl in Fl that ment alot to me named Summer... and i was still dating my highschool sweetheart... well this highschool sweetheart girl... was treating me bad.. she had a new group of friends... and when i was out touring there was this guy she was starting to hangout alot with... and everybody in my town called him disease paul... haha.. yeah it sucked.. anyways... knowing that thats going on.. i really wanted to just end things... but 4 years of dating... i hate change... im afraid of it... seriously... I was young a dumb.. never just dropping her.. and going with Summer.. till it was to late... i could of showed Summer alot more care if I just ended it with Jeneane (highschool sweetheart for you slow learners out there).. So anyways... i did end of dropping Jeneane and dating Summer for abit.. but ended up moving back home to NC and like all good things.. well most.. they come to a end.. and i wrote this song for Summer..
"august ill still be singing" my birthday is in august... so that means every year....
