I remember seventeen
Lazy days in July heat
Momma sayin': "Are you gonna sleep all summer long?"
August came and August went, I was
Gettin' books for school again
That's the time that she moved in
Three doors down
From then on I was captured by
A little blond with hazel eyes
I can't explain the butterflies
When she climbed in my window one night
And said:
"Wake up, wake up, sleepy boy"
So soft and low I heard her voice
"You gotta see the moonlight on the river"
So we ran down, fell down in the grass
Love was young and wild and growing fast
I gave up my heart, can't plead surrender
I remember
When she was September
ย
When I think about my first truck
I pro'bly never really drove it that much
All I remember is steamin' it up
With her in my arms
The first I heard about Santa Fe
I caught her holdin' back tears one day, said
Her daddy found the job he's gotta take
And that's where they're movin'
Before we had to say goodbye
She came over late that night
She walked in, I closed my eyes
So I can hear her one more time
"Oh, wake up, wake up, sleepy boy"
So soft and low I heard her voice
"You gotta see the moonlight on the river"
So we ran down, fell down in the grass
Love was young and wild and growing fast
I gave up my heart, can't plead surrender
I remember
When she was September
It's been years
Since I've laid down
Had not heard the sound
That I'm hearin' now
"Oh, wake up, wake up, sleepy boy"
So soft and low I hear her voice
"You gotta see the moonlight on the river"
So we ran down, fell down in the grass
Love was young and wild and growing fast
I gave up my heart, can't plead surrender
I remember
When she was September
She was September
