TRY TO REMEMBER

Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh, so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass is green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a tender and callow fellow
Try to remember,
And if you remember
Then follow.
(follow, follow, follow…)

Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
That dreams were kept beside your pillow.

Try to remember when life was so tender
That love was an ember about to billow.
Try to remember
And if you remember
Then follow.
(follow, follow, follow…)

Deep in December it’s nice to remember,
Although you know the snow will follow,
Deep in December it’s nice to remember:
Without a hurt the heart is hollow.
Deep in December it’s nice to remember
The fire of September that made us mellow.
Deep in December
Our hearts should remember,
And follow.
