Lyrics of
September

September by Earth, Wind & Fire was composed by Maurice White, Al McKay, and Allee Willis. It became one of the bands hits after its release in 1978. Maurice White aimed to produce a track that would keep people dancing and feeling good. According to Willis, the specific mention of the 21st night of September was chosen because 21 sounded phonetically pleasing in the song, rather than denoting a particular significance.

Do you remember
the 21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away

Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing.
As we danced in the night,
Remember, how the stars stole the night away

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day
Ba de ya

My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love,
Remember how we knew love was here to stay

Now December found the love that we shared in September.
Only blue talk and love,
Remember the true love we share today

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day
