Lyric discussion by steveinmuskegon 

Take me back to september 1994 the first time I heard this song... my life changed forever that month, the album title grabbed me. August and everything after, I met her in the spring 1994, blonde hair and blue eyes cutest little thing I ever saw, I was married and so was she, both of us unhappy her in a controlling abusive relationship, me captivated by her. By memorial day we were together everyday, intimate and spending every minute we had falling deeper in love and making plans for a future together. We spent our summer days together, nights home with the others miserable and wanting to be together. By August she came to me and told me she was pregnant a little scared but happy, I was also scared but wanted her more than anything else... September she left me and went back to her husband, told me there was a small chance it could be his and she wanted to stay with him,
Blue morning blue morning Wrapped in strands of fist and bone Curiosity Kitten doesn't have to mean you're on your own You can look outside your window He doesn't have to know We can talk awhile baby..... All I wanted was a chance to talk to her

All your life is such a shame shame shame All your love is just a dream dream dream Are you happy when you're sleeping? Does he keep you safe and warm? Does he tell you when you're sorry? Does he tell you when you're wrong?

I've been watching you for hours It's been years since we were born We were perfect when we started I've been wondering where we've gone All your life is such a shame, shame, shame All your love is just a dream, dream, dream Well, I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows

One for sorrow.... All the sorrow now in my life Two for joy..... All the joy we had together Three for girls and four for boys...... Our baby together Five for silver Six for gold and Seven for a secret never to be told...... A secret we could never tell There's a bird that nests inside you Sleeping underneath your skin When you open up your wings to speak I wish you'd let me in All your life is such a shame, shame, shame All your love is just a dream, dream, dream Open up your eyes You can see the flames of your wasted life You should be ashamed You don't want to waste your life I walk along these hillsides In the summer 'neath the sunshine I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me Change, change, change

Well thats what the song means to me, not sure if its close to the original intention Adam meant but 17 years have passed and the song still haunts me today I've never seen her again and still think about her and the child

@steveinmuskegon I'm really sorry for you... That sounds terrible living through every day knowing that you will probably never get to know what happened.
