lyrics

There's cold and sunny day, captured in a photograph long gone
I can see it now, we were still deciding where we should call home
Taking in the city view and wondering what the coming months would bring
We turned our jacket collars up to keep us from the biting wind

Summer may be over, but September may yet have more sunny days
What we had and what we lost remember through the music we played

There's a cold and sunny day, it has left a picture in my mind
I can see it now any time I choose to close my eyes
Something was moving over us, we were at the start of something new
We sat with friends and strangers, taking in the frozen sunshine view

Summer may be over, but September may yet have more sunny days
What we had and what we lost remember through the music we played

Summer may be over, but September has more sunny days than June,
Through the miles and differences I'll find a way so we can be renewed

We're coming out of winter's chill, the thaw has left us soaking wet and cold
What should we do with ourselves, just sit and wait for time to make us ill?
You don't know what lies ahead, you only know what's happening right now
It's times like these you realise everything's connected somehow

Soon the wait is over and the springtime brings the start of something new
So tie me down and hold me there, if nothing changes nothing can improve

In my hand I hold a seed, broken and covered in Earth
Let's bury deep and hope will grow, time show us its worth
In 10 years' time should we return, gathered far and wide
We'll search these fields one summer's day and find what we have made
We'll find what we have made

Soon the wait is over and the springtime brings the start of something new
So tie me down and hold me there, if nothing changes nothing can improve

Summer may be over, but September has more sunny days than June,
Through the miles and differences I'll find a way so we can be renewed

Summer may be over, but September may yet have more sunny days
What we had and what we lost remember through the music we played

Summer may be over, but September has more sunny days than June,
Through the miles and differences I'll find a way so we can be with you
