As mid-September turns October
Once lively leaves begin to turn over
And the warmth of summer feels further and further
Leaving loneliness to hug its shores
The songbird sighs its sing-songy goodbyes
Leaving barren skies alone and cold
The morning songs of summer
No longer there to warm the soul
With every passing day
Theres less sunlight here to stay
And the warmth of summer rays have gone to find a new place
Where flowers will welcome them upon their face
Now summers gone to find a new home
And without a second thought,
we’ve been left here alone
We long, we hope, and we wait
For summers warm embrace
to take winters lonely place

As mid-September turns October
Once lively leaves begin to turn over
And the warmth of summer feels further and further
Leaving loneliness to hug its shores
The songbird sighs its sing-songy goodbyes
Leaving barren skies alone and cold
The morning songs of summer
No longer there to warm the soul
With every passing day
Theres less sunlight here to stay
And the warmth of summer rays have gone to find a new place
Where flowers will welcome them upon their face
Now summers gone to find a new home
And without a second thought,
we’ve been left here alone
We long, we hope, and we wait
For summers warm embrace
to take winters lonely place
