When the sun starts to set its hard to forget about the time we've been wasting
But it didn't feel like wasting when we were waiting on our time to end
They said it wouldn't last long enough for it to hurt but now you're crying in the rain
And I'm sitting here waiting on that bottle of whiskey to numb the pain
Cause the bonfire blues got me missing you 'neath the big blue moon
In the September sun oh it really ain't much fun knowing I can't wake up next to you
I knew it was love and I knew you'd be gone but I had to keep on trying
Cause with every little touch and every kiss it felt like I was flying
When the day bleeds to night I look up at the sky and pray to the stars
That you'll come back and I know that you won't but believing its so damn hard
Cause the bonfire blues got me missing you 'neath the big blue moon
In the September sun oh it really ain't much fun knowing I can't wake up next to you
