September When It Comes (featuring Johnny Cash)
There's a cross above the baby's bed
A Saviour in her dreams
But she was not delivered then
And the baby became me
There's a light inside the darkened room
A footstep on the stair
A door that I forever close
To leave those memories there
So when the shadows link them
Into an evening sun
Well first there's summer, then I'll let you in
September when it comes
I plan to crawl outside these walls
Close my eyes and see
And fall into the heart and arms
Of those who wait for me
I cannot move a mountain now;
I can no longer run
I cannot be who I was then:
In a way, I never was
I watch the clouds go sailing;
I watch the clock and sun
Oh, I watch myself, depending on
September when it comes
So when the shadows link them
And burn away the clouds
They will fly me, like an angel
To a place where I can rest
When this begins, I'll let you know
September when it comes
