Lyrics
Green September
Burned to October brown
Bare November
Led to December's frozen ground
The seasons stumble 'round
Our drifting lives are bound
To a falling crescent noon
(Doo, doo)
Feather clouds cry
A veil of tears to earth
Morning breaks and
No one sees a quiet mountain bird
Dressed in a brand-new day
The sun is on its way
To a falling crescent noon
(Doo, doo)
Somewhere
In a fairy tale forest lies one
Answer that is waiting to be heard
(Doo, doo)
You and I were
Born like the breaking day
All our seasons
All our green Septembers burn away
Slowly, we'll fade into
A sea of midnight blue
And a falling crescent noon
Writer(s): Richard Lynn Carpenter, John Bettis
