Behind my back you sold me out
The master plan must matter more
You scratch my back i claw yours
It′s no surprise
September burns ( spent the months like days )
I believed the things you said
Should′ve stayed away instead
You lost everything you had
It′s no surprise
All the effort gone to waste
Now i see your honest face
Here′s a taste of what we lost
What′s left to say? nothing more to say
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends
like my fathers come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends
here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are
as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends
summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends
ring out the bells again
like we did when spring began
wake me up when september ends
here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are
as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends
like my father′s come to pass
twenty years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends
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 by
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
Of all the things I still remember
Summer′s never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly by
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
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
Of all the things I still remember
Summer′s never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly by
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
It′s the end of september
And with every turning tree
It gets harder to remember
Why the easy days of summer
Were just wasted of me
Kind of wasted on me
It′s the end of semtember
And with every drop of train
It gets harder to remember
Why the happy days of summer
Gave me something close to pain
Ave me something close to pain
I have been singing
A lonely song
All summer long
Now i praise
Grey days of fall
I embrace them all
Embrace them all
I have been singing
A lonely song
All summer long
Now i praise
Grey days of fall
I embrace them all
Embrace them all
