September Song Songtext
Songtext powered by LyricFind
(By Maxwell Anderson - Kurt Weill)
When I was a young man courtin'
The girls I played me a waiting game
If a maid refused me with tossing curls
I let the old earth take a couple of whirls,
While I plied her with tears in lieu of pearl
And as time came around she came my way
As time came around she came.
Oh, it's a long long while from May to December
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game
Oh the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November and these few precious days
I'll spend with you
These precious days I'll spend with you...
But the days grow short when you reach September
When I was a young man courtin'
The girls I played me a waiting game
If a maid refused me with tossing curls
I let the old earth take a couple of whirls,
While I plied her with tears in lieu of pearl
And as time came around she came my way
As time came around she came.
Oh, it's a long long while from May to December
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game
Oh the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November and these few precious days
I'll spend with you
These precious days I'll spend with you...
