when life was slow and oh, so mellow.

Try to remember the kind of September

when gras was green and grain was yellow.

Try to remember the kind of September

you were a tender and callow fellow.

Try to remember and if you remember, then follow,

(echo) follow, follow, follow, follow

follow, follow, follow, follow.

Try to remember when life was so tender

that no one wept except the willow.

Try to remember when life was so tender

that dreams were kept beside your pillow.

Try to remember when life was so tender

that love was an ember about to billow.

Try to remember and if you rememer, then follow,

(echo) follow, follow, follow, follow

follow, follow, follow, follow.

Deep in December it's nice to remember it's nice

to remember altho' you know the snow will follow.

Deep in December it's nice to remember it's nice

to remember without a hurt the heart is hollow.

Deep in December it's nice to remember it's nice

to remember the fire of September that made use mellow.

Try to remember and if you rememer, then follow,

(echo) follow, follow, follow, follow

follow, follow, follow, follow.
