"September In The Rain"

(Harry Warren & Al Dubin)

The leaves of brown, came tumbling down,
Remember that September, in the Rain

The sun went out just like a dying ember
That September in the rain

To every word of love I've heard you whisper
The raindrops seem to play a sweet refrain.

Though spring is here to me it's still September
That September in the rain

To every word of love I've heard you whisper
The raindrops seem to play a sweet refrain

Though spring is here to me it's still September
That September in the rain
September in the rain
That September in the rain
