Wake Me Up When September Ends

Wait!

Stop for a while,

let the sun set

and let the stars shine out bright

And before the autumn sets in

Make sure you leave,

and while you are at it,

Take away the flowers of spring

Every petal, every dream

Every kiss, every embrace

Leave none, for I shall leave too

like two people who were in love once

and then parted

Or maybe not.

Till then,

Wait!

Stop for a while,

let us count

the rays of sunlight

wrap our arms with the shades

they provide.

Let us watch the sun set

as we glide along our memories

each coated in spring

For autumn is coming

and soon we shall be gone

Till then,

Wait!

Stop, for a while,

Let us raise a toast

For waking up, now that September has ended!
