There's a cross above the baby's bed
A Saviour in her dreams
But she was not delivered then
And the baby became me
There's a light inside
the darkened room
A footstep on the stair
A door that I forever close
To leave those memories there
So when the shadows link them
Into an evening sun
Well first there's summer
then I'll let you in
September when it comes

By plan to crawl outside these walls
Close my eyes and see
And fall into the heart and arms
Of those who wait for me
I cannot move a mountain now
I can no longer run
I cannot be who I was then
In a way
I never was
I watch the clouds go sailing
I watch the clock and sun
Oh I watch myself
depending on
September when it comes

When the shadows link them
And burn away the clouds
They will fly me
like an angel
To a place where I can rest
When this begins
I'll let you know
September when it comes
