(v.1)
On a morning in September
I saw you walk away
Slowly in my heart
Drifting away
You got in the car
And you drove away
That morning in September
I died that day
(chorus)
And I can remember the first day I cried
And I can remember the first day I died
And I can remember standing alone
O tell me, where did you go?
And I can remember walking away
And I can remember feeling the pain
And I can remember drying my eyes
O tell me, why did you go?
(v.2)
I stayed in my room
Thinking of you
I cried myself to sleep
Dreaming memories
So why?d you have to go?
Why did you leave me alone?
(chorus)
And I can remember the first day I cried
And I can remember the first day I died
And I can remember standing alone
O tell me, where did you go?
And I can remember the tears on my cheek
And I can remember that chill in me
And I can remember that broken heart
So tell me where did you go?
And I can remember the first day I cried
And I can remember the first day I died
And I can remember standing alone
That morning in September
I watched you go
(v.3)
I sat on the porch on a summer?s day
I was watching the sun going down
When a car pulled in the drive
And I saw you walking straight towards me
And you said you were sorry
You left me alone
You pulled me in your arms
And you said you were home
But I still remember that day I cried
And I still remember that day I died
And I still remember standing alone
So tell me, where did you go?
Yet I remember feeling that joy
Seeing you here, opening the door
And I can remember your warm embrace
That evening in the summer
I breathed again
