Lyrics:

we went to Sweetwater Creek
to get a nice break from the heat
to wander by water
by rocks and by ruins
get lost taking pictures
of ripples on pools

and when the light started to fail
and we were still on the trail

we heard the twilight band of August
playing their concert through the vale
we heard the twilight band of August
telling their tale

habits can be hard to break
we talk just to fill up the space
a comment on this, and a question on that
a point of confusion turns into a spat

but when the light started to fail
and we were still out on the trail

we heard the twilight band of August
playing their concert through the vale
we heard the twilight band of August
telling their tale

off in the distance the roar of the falls
we’re hiking our way back to ceilings and walls
suddenly nothing occurs as a rush
and something inside feels the need to be hushed

we heard the twilight band of August
playing their concert through the vale
we heard the twilight band of August
telling their tale…
we heard the twilight band of August
playing their concert through the vale
we heard the twilight band of August
telling their tale
