THE SEPTEMBER
Words by Sammy Cahn
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
Verse
ONE DAY YOU TURN AROUND, AND IT’S AUTUMN,
NEXT DAY YOU TURN AROUND AND IT’S FALL,
AND THE SPRINGS AND THE SUMMERS OF A LIFETIME,
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THEM ALL?
Chorus
AS A MAN
WHO HAS ALWAYS HAD THE WAND’RING WAYS,
NOW I’M REACHING BACK FOR YESTERDAYS,
‘TIL A LONG FORGOTTEN LOVE APPEARS
AND I FIND,
THAT I’M SIGHING SOFTLY AS I NEAR
SEPTEMBER,
THE WARM SEPTEMBER OF MY YEARS,
AS A MAN
WHO HAS NEVER STOPPED AT WISHING WELLS,
NOW I’M WATCHING CHILDREN’S CAROUSELS,
AND THEIR LAUGHTER’S MUSIC TO MY EARS,
AND I FIND
THAT I’M SMILING GENTLY AS I NEAR SEPTEMBER,
THE WARM SEPTEMBER OF MY YEARS.....,
THE GOLDEN WARM SEPTEMBER OF MY YEARS.
(Repeat Chorus)
OF MY YEARS
