September's gone
She smiled and kissed him goodbye
She taught him just how to live
Now he knows how to love and he knows how to give
And to be strong
He knows what man he should be
No longer waits on the shelf
Now he knows how to love and to give of himself
(chorus)
When they danced in the blue rain
She tempted his soul with desire
Though they had fun in the game
He didn't expect to get caught
In her fire, in her fire
September's gone
She freed his soul from its cage
She closed the book on his pain
Now he waits for her still to haunt him again
