September

September.
I'd give my life if it would last forever.
Do you remember.
Walking with me down Cherry Street.
Red stained fingers.
And red stained teeth looking for mulberries.
Branches still green.
You pulled one down so that I could reach.

The end of summer's heat.
You are September to me.
Before the autumn leaves.
You are my sun and my breeze.

Swallowed in reverie.
You are my fondest memories.
Always pulling back at me.
You are the earth beneath my feet.

All of August kept me waiting.
And October I spent aching.
All of August kept me waiting.
And October I spent aching.

September.
I'll live my life cause it won't last forever.
Always remember.
Your blue-green eyes and charming chipped front teeth.
And though it's too brief.
I wanna know you're coming back to me.
Longing for your relief.
Cause you're the one I know that I can't keep.

The end of summer's heat.
You are September to me.
Before the autumn leaves.
You are my sun and my breeze.
Swallowed by reverie.
You are my fondest memories.
Always pulling back at me.
You are the earth beneath my feet.
