September Lyrics In English
How the time passed away, all the trouble that we gave
And all those days we spent out by the lake
Has it all gone to waste? All the promises we made
One by one, they vanish just the same
Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain
In the middle of September, we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end
Now it all seems so clear, there's nothing left to fear
So we made our way by finding what was real
Now the days are so long that summer's moving on
We reach for something that's already gone, yeah
Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain
In the middle of September, we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose, but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end
Yeah, we knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when
And we never knew how
We would end up here the way we are
Yeah, we knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when
And we never knew how
We would end up here the way we are
Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain
In the middle of September, we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
