Then September

[Intro]
One, two, three

[Verse 1]
June was a blue sky that we were just floatin' in
Swimmin' in your eyes, it felt like it would never ent
But it came and went and July flew by faster
And the August wind blew your heart right past me

[Chorus]
Then September came around, the sand got colder
The nights got long, days got shorter
And you weren't here to walk this beach
With your hand in mine like a summer breeze
You're gone, you ain't coming back
'Cause summer love just don't work like that
Comes on strong, rolls out fast
And you think it'll last last forever
Then September
Oh, oh

[Verse 2]
You and the summer, yeah, you got a lot in common, babe
Ain't it a bummer that you both had to fade away?
I wish you'd stay, I wish you'd hold me
When the leaves all change, but you just left me lonely

[Chorus]
Then September came around, the sand got colder
The nights got long, days got shorter
And you weren't here to walk this beach
With your hand in mine like a summer breeze
You're gone, you ain't coming back
'Cause summer love just don't work like that
Comes on strong, rolls out fast
And you think it'll last last forever
Then September
Yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
It felt like love, it felt like magic
We came so close, yeah, we almost had it

[Chorus]
Then September came around, sand got colder
The nights got long, the days got shorter
And you weren't here to walk this beach
With your hand in mine like a summer breeze
You're gone, you ain't coming back
'Cause summer love just don't work like that
Comes on strong, rolls out fast
And you think it'll last last forever
Then September
Then September

[Outro]
You're gone, you're gone, gone, you're gone, girl
