One September Day

Nina Simone · Four Women: Nina Simone Philips Recordings [2003]

Years, they will come and go



Sometimes the tears will flow



Some of my memories will fade



But I'll always remember that one September day



I used to reminisce



'Cause I thought that love was bliss



How did they know it would go astray



It began and it ended on one September day



We met by chance



As people often do



But it blossomed, yes it blossomed



Into something I never knew



Now, it is in the past



They said it would never last



I'll not forget the moment back



Nor hot May or December



Nor June or November



But one September day
