Sweet September

I walk the streets beneath the lights  
With shouts from the window panes  
And the pain I feel seems at home  
Under the neon and falling rain  
And the church bell rings a song  
Of  a  long forgotten love  
Kick a can and curse the night  
For bringing  me the memory of  
 
There’s nothing but ghost to chase  
No more lies to remember  
Just the memory of  lost love  
And the song of sweet September  
Dry your eyes on the setting sun  
Pray forgetting lasts  forever  
The memories of  lost love  
And the song of sweet September

I run my mouth  in a stranger’s ear
With  tales and  big shot lies
And the road that walks me home tonight
Holds my  hand when I close my  eyes
So I’ll dance a two step with my thoughts
as the  music fades away
Because Tomorrow’s only promise
 Is that  tomorrow will be the same
