12th of September

Today dawned like any other, light still paints the sky
Music playin' softly in my ear, woke up sad an' wondered why
Then I heard a voice on the radio, I should have known
It's the Twelfth of September

I got up an' made my coffee, fed the cats, stepped outside
In the garden, the ground is turning brown, like the trees had cried
Then the sound of geese flyin' filled the air, I stop to stare
It's the Twelfth of September

In my dreams I fly thru the night - my love by my side
But I wake up here, love's gone a year and hope has finally disappeared

Tonight's gonna be a cold one, there's a ring around the moon
The embers of my love for him still burn, hope they go out soon
He said, "a bird must fly to survive the snow," so I let him go
On The Twelfth of September

In my dreams I fly thru the night - my love by my side
But I wake up here, love's gone a year and my hope has finally disappeared

Tonight's gonna be another cold one, there's that ring around the moon
Embers of my love for him still burn, I hope they go out soon
He said, "a bird must fly to survive the snow," so I let him go
On the Twelfth of September, the 12th of September, the 12th of September
