Artist/Band: Mario Lanza
Lyrics for Song: September Song, Song For Voice & Piano (From knickerbocker Holiday)
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Mario Lanza



When I was a young man courting the girls

I played me a waiting game

If a maid refused me with tossing curls

I'd let the old Earth make a couple of whirls

While I plied her with tears in lieu of pearls

And as time came around she came my way

As time came around, she came



Oh, it's a long long while from May to December

But the days grow short when you reach September

When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame

And you ain't got time for waiting game



When days dwindle down to a precious few

September November,

And these few golden days I'd share with you

Those golden days I share with you



When you meet with the young girls early in the Spring

You court them in song and rhyme

They answer with words and a clover ring

But if you could examine the goods they bring

They have little to offer but the songs they sing

And the plentiful waste of time of day

A plentiful waste of time



Oh, it's a long, long while from May to December

But the days grow short when you reach September

When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame

One hasn't got time for the waiting game



Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few

September, November

And these few precious days I'll spend with you

These precious days I'll spend with you
