[English]

Our love is as strong as a lion

Soft as the cuts on you lying

Times we got hot like an iron

You and I

Our hearts had never been broken

We were so innocent darling

We used to talk 'til the morning

You and I

We had that mixtape on every weekend

Had it repeating

Had it repeating

You were my September song

Summer lasted too long

Time moves so slowly

When you're only 15

You were my September song

Tell me where have you gone?

Do you remember me?

We were only 15

And I, I remember the chorus

They were singing it for us

You were my September song

Tell me where have you gone?

Do you remember me?

We were only 15

Sometimes I think that I see your

Face in the strangest of places

Down on the underground station passing by

I get a mad sense of danger

Feel like my heart couldn't take it

Cause if we met we'd be strangers

You and I

Still I play that mixtape every weekend

Got it repeating

Got it repeating

You were my September song

Summer lasted too long

Time moves so slowly

When you're only 15

You were my September song

Tell me where have you gone?

Do you remember me?

We were only 15

And I, I remember the chorus

They were singing it for us

I hear that September song

That I'm singing along

Thinking about you and me

Oh, what a melody

And as the years go by

You will still be my, be my (September song)

You are my

September song

You were my September song

Summer lasted too long

Time moves so slowly

When you're only 15

You were my September song

Tell me where have you gone?

Do you remember me?

We were only 15

And I, I remember the chorus

They were singing it for us

You were my September song

I remember the chorus

They were singing it for us
