Last September

Last September
Do you remember when we use to laugh and sing?
Didn’t care too much about anything
No idea of what the days ahead would bring
Now the nights are long the leaves have turned to red
And I’m left with nothing but the words you said
Running wild inside my head

You said your dreams were calling you
Away to someplace new
But you swore you’d hold our promise true
So don’t forget me when you’re gone
I’ll be right here when you leave to travel on
Be your cavalier and wait
Until you come home, I can’t take being alone
If we both remember what we said last September
Do you remember nights we lay awake in bed?
Dreaming endlessly about the days I had
Or will you move on and forget?
If I could leave, I’d follow you, but I’ve been dreaming too.
And I know our love will get us through.
So don’t forget me when you’re gone
I’ll be right here when you leave to travel on
Be your cavalier and wait
Until you come home, I can’t take being alone
If we both remember what we said last September
And if we finally drift apart, we’ll take it right back to the start
A little closer to the heart of ground we’ve tread
But it hasn’t happened yet

So don’t forget me when you’re gone,
I’ll be right here when you leave to travel on.
It won’t be long.
So don’t forget me when you’re gone
I’ll be right here while you leave to travel on
Be your cavalier and wait
Until you come home, I can’t take being alone
If we both remember what we said last September
