Intro: EmEmCG
There's a cross above the baby's bed,
DEmA Saviour in her dreams.
CGEm
But she was not delivered then,
DEm
And the baby became me.
EmCG
There's a light inside the darkened room,
DEmA footstep on the stairs.
CGEmA door that I forever close,
DEm
To leave those memories there.
CAm
So when the shadows link them,
CAm
Into an evening sun.
EmCG
Well first there's summer, then I'll let you in.
DEm
September when it comes.
EmCG
I plan to crawl outside these walls,
DEm
Close my eyes and see.
CGEm
And fall into the heart and arms,
DEm
Of those who wait for me.
EmCG
I cannot move a mountain now;
DEm
I can no longer run.
CGEm
I cannot be who I was then:
DEm
In a way, I never was.
CAm
I watch the clouds go sailing;
CAm
I watch the clock and sun.
EmCG
Oh, I watch myself, depending on,
DEm
September when it comes.
CAm
So when the shadows link them,
CAm
And burn away the clouds.
EmC
They will fly me, like an angel,
GDEm
To a place where I can rest.
CGEm
When this begins, I'll let you know,
DEm
September when it comes.
