The summer dying
September lives in flames
The sisters dancing
No happy ending to the game
Don't bother to call me
Think I'll stay here just the same

[Chorus]
Flaming September
What can you give me that is true?
Do you remember
Do you remember
Do you remember
All the life I gave to you?

The summer dying
September lives in flames
My youth lies bruised and broken
No happy ending to the game
Don't bother to tell me
I'll live on here just the same

[Chorus]

Flaming September
What can you show me that is true?
My heart remembers
Do you remember
Do you remember
All the life I gave
To you?

Flaming September
Flaming September
