September Nights

You drifted in, a fall sunrise,
Never said the reason why.
In one short dance, we had it all.
Under autumn skies.

You taught me then how days could be
Made of silk and harmony,
Where dreams are fueled by season's change
And two hearts running free.

The best of love's not found on winter days,
Bloom of spring or heat of summer's rays.
Time spent together, the moon our guiding light,
I'll remember you
Through warm September nights.

You kissed me and your dark eyes smiled,
Asked if you could stay awhile.
Leaves swirled down around our feet
In multi-colored aisles.

You taught me then how days could be
Made of silk and harmony,
Where dreams are fueled by season's change,
And two hearts running free.

Chorus

Sunflowers fade.
Rose petals fall.
Soft autumn rains,
Memories recall.
Indian summer's harvest will bring
Life's cycle unbroken again.

You left me when cold winds came,
Born to flee December's pain.
Midnight sighs and tears remain
In lessons learned again.

Chorus

Thinking of you,
Through warm September nights.
