Miss September

[Verse 1]
There goes my love
Beneath the stars shining right up above
Hanging low I know my heart is sinking

And the Heaven that we both used to hold
Is lying still in the winter cold
And the only thing keeping me warm is this bottle I'm drinking

[Chorus]
'Cause she can't remember what we did in December
She crawled into my loving arms
And she can't recall if she loved me at all
But she'll be my girl again next fall

[Verse 2]
And the sun was shining down on her skin
And the ugly days crept on in
There was something in the way that she walked
That let me know she was leaving

Well, you can't always blame the sun
'Cause if you wanna get something done
Stay perfectly still so she knows where to run

[Chorus]
'Cause she can't remember what we did in December
She crawled into my loving arms
And she can't recall if she loved me at all
But she'll be my girl again next fall

[Bridge]
If only hearts could perfectly break
Into pieces for each other to take
Like this necklace I have engraved and hold in my hands
Then maybe, baby, you would've stayed
And, baby, you'd be here today
So help me take this grave so deep in the sand

[Chorus]
'Cause she can't remember what we did in December
She crawled into my loving arms
And she can't recall if she loved me at all
But she'll be my girl again next fall

[Outro]
She'll be my girl again next fall
She'll be my girl again next fall
