[Verse 1]
Come home tonight
I don't care about a thing
But you and I
I just want to hear you sing
We were bathing in the ocean
It's hard controlling my emotions for you
Yeah, we caused quite a commotion
Pray to God that you're the one, oh

[Chorus]
September ain't that far, is it?
Can you hold me before you go?
I just need a little piece
For me to keep right here
September ain't that far, is it?
Hope I see you when you get home
Hope I feel the way you love
The way you hold my hand

[Verse 2]
So long, babe, I'm sending my love
Glide 'round like the birds from above
White roses spread all on the floor
I think that I'm, I'm in love
Over two thousand miles, baby, where did the time go?
Stay by my side while I sing "Kiss of life"
And I wish we could talk more about baby Joan
And what she'd look like
Or who she'd look like
[Chorus]
September ain't that far, is it?
Can you hold me before you go?
I just need a little piece
For me to keep right here
September ain't that far is it?
Hope I see you when you get home
Hope I feel the way you love
The way you hold my hand
September ain't that far, is it?
Can you hold me awhile?
You know we ain't finished
Don't forget

[Outro]
Don't forget, no, no
