September, the leaves were falling red and gold
And I remember the way you pulled me closer
Nothing else existed in the world we lived in
Hidden, we didn't see the storm was coming closerThat was then
But the time has come and gone
Nothing left but a broken story
We can't change, can't eraseNothing that we can say now
Can get back what we gave up
That was then, this is now
It's been too longDecember, when we were
Drifting like the falling snow
Around us but then a winter's chill
Blew through your heartMistakes we made
Didn't know what they'd change
The silence, was so hard
But I am stronger for itThat was then
But the time has come and gone
Nothing left but a broken story
We can't change, can't eraseNothing that we can say now
Can get back what we gave up
That was then, this is now
It's been too longSeptember, the leaves are
Falling gold again
I remember the way we wereThat was then
But the time has come and gone
Nothing left but a broken story
We can't change, can't eraseNothing that we can say now
Can get back what we gave up
That was then, this is now
It's been too longIt's been too long
It's been too long
