September (for Tanja)

Daughtry - September

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 yeah

of all the things i remember

summer's never looked the same

the year's 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 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
