SEPTEMBER IN THE RAIN
Dinah Washington

The leaves of brown came tumblin' down, remember

In September in the rain

The sun went out just like a dying ember

That September in the rain


To every word of love I heard you whisper

The raindrops seemed to play a sweet refrain


Though spring is here, to me it's still September

That September in the rain


------ harmonica solo ------


To every word of love I heard you whisper

The raindrops seemed to play a sweet refrain


Though spring is here, to me it's still September

That September in the rain

That September in the rain
