September's here, I feel the wind
Running through my mind again
I wonder how it feels to you?
Does it enter your mind too?
I know yours is hard to find
I've seen you once, I've seen you twice
We'll have a talk, I think it's nice
To hear an old friend's couple cents
Share mutual silence
Now I know it wasn't that way for you
But I'll follow you home
And I'm sorry that you ever felt alone
These stitches run endless through these trees
While your mama's crying praying on her knees
Every hymn to God she is sure to sing
But my friend, it won't change a thing
A broken mind some stairs away
To go and maybe care to say
Words to give you hope for now
A gift only I could endow
But I kept it in my safe
But I'll follow you home
And I'm sorry that you ever felt alone
These stitches run endless through these trees
While your mama's crying praying on her knees
Every hymn to God she is sure to sing
But my friend, it won't change a thing
But you're still the boy I knew back in grade school
Running around laughing like a bunch of drunken fools
And all these birds, they are sure to sing
But you're still my brother and it won't change a thing
