lyrics

SEPTEMBER SONG

Oh it’s a long long while
From May to December
And the days grow short
When you reach September

When the autumn weather
Turns the leaves to flame
One hasn’t got time
For the waiting game

Oh the days dwindle down
To a precious few
November, December
And these few precious days
I’ll spend with you
These precious days
I’ll spend with you

(Instrumental Break)

Oh the days dwindle down
To a precious few
November, December
And I have lost one tooth
And I walk a little lame
And I haven’t got time
For the waiting game
