It is late September and it's getting cold We're putting on our winter clothes And winter smiles And I knew that I missed you And I don't know why That I never told you Your world collided with mine You got me talking in the sleep And not wanting to eat Faking smiles all the time And I know that I promised you the earth For all its worth Can't get away from it It's all a lie It is late September and it's getting cold Your birthday's coming and I miss you so Got to give you time And I got you a present, it is only small But if you only saw it It would give you hope I miss your winter smile You got me talking in my sleep Not wanting to eat Faking smiles all the time And I know that I promised you the earth For all its worth Can't get away from it It's all a lie Lonely late September I said, "A lonely late September"
