Well, September comes around
Like an old familiar friend
So I take off to central park
To watch those falling leaves again
And in the arbors of strawberry fields,
In a night as bright as day
I look up at the sky and wish I could
Fly away
Cause I’d say? I know this life won’t last forever
But wherever you go these days
I’m with you
All the way
And I’d say, I know your time and mine together
Is something I’ll never understand
But I promise you,
I’ll always be your man
And so I watch those falling leaves
Until the winter kicks in good
Until I reach the same conclusion
We never say the things we should
You’re with me all the time it seems,
Yeah, these days I’m not alone
I can’t describe the things I’m going through,
It’s you not me
That flew away
And I’d say - I know this time won’t last forever
But wherever you go these days
I’m with you
All the way
And I say - I know your time and mine together
Is more than I can understand
But I promise you,
I’ll always be your man
And time has put us through some
Heavy changes
And I say
I still care about you
And I know what loves for
And I’ll be right here waiting for you every day
To come in laughing through that door
Look up at the towers, baby,
Through the falling snow
It’s hard to tell what you’ve been going through
Cause I’m a stranger now in your world
And I’d give anything to understand
The rules again
Cause I’d say - I know this world won’t last forever
But wherever you go these days
I’m with you
All the way
And I say - I know your time and mine together
Is something I’ll never understand
But I promise you,
I’ll always be your man
Day in day out
I have no doubt
I’ll always be your
Man
