O September

Words and music by Joe Dickinson

 

September, O September

Goodbye has come at last

Until we meet again next year

I hope that you had fun

With your mistress in the sun

Until we meet again next year

 

Don’t let the man get you down

He ain’t nothing but a frown

You're everything he wishes he could be

When oblivion awaits

Go and meet it at the gates

Strength is just believing in yourself

 

September, O September

Your words are fading fast

Until we meet again next year

I know that you are blue

But there’s nothing I can do

Until we meet again next year

 

Young blood is on its way out

I’m drinking water in a drought

Perhaps it’s time for a change?

Hope you don’t mind another man

I could lend a helping hand

Do you believe me Mr. Blue?

 

September, O September

The rain has finally come

Until we meet again next year

My hat goes ff to you

There ain’t nothing you can’t do

Until we meet again next year

 

Bluebird sitting on my shoulder

The air’s a boulder getting colder

Late nights, early mornings mmmmmm

When your head begins to spin

Find comfort in a friend

Your best I swear it’s good enough

 

September, O September

You haunt me like a curse

Until we meet again next year

I swear I’m gonna change

Reassess and rearrange

Until we meet again next year
