Summer has come and passed
          The innocent can never last
          Wake me up when September ends
          Like my father's come to pass
          Seven years has gone so fast
          Wake me up when September ends
          Here comes the rain again
          Falling from the stars
          Drenched in my pain again
          Becoming who we are
          As my memory rests
          But never forgets what I lost
          Wake me up when September ends
          Summer has come and passed
          The innocent can never last
          Wake me up when September ends
          Ring out the bells again
          Like we did when spring began
          Wake me up when September ends
          Here comes the rain again
          Falling from the stars
          Drenched in my pain again
          Becoming who we are
          As my memory rests
          But never forgets what I lost
          Wake me up when September ends
          Summer has come and passed
          The innocent can never last
          Wake me up when September ends
          Like my father's come to pass
          Twenty years has gone so fast
          Wake me up when September ends
          Wake me up when September ends
          Wake me up when September ends
