lyrics

September is Over

It was the night that we broke the bottles against the ship
And the night that we took upon us to cross over it
And the night that we stood and watched the lunar eclipse
And if we don’t get it in the mail by noon..we’re doomed

It was the sound of the rushing water against the ship
And the sound of the popping bottles that we celebrate with
And the sound of our fears escaping and letting go of it
And if we don’t get it in the mail by noon, we’re doomed

And five roses up in the sky
And four pools of tears that I cried
And three miles up to the mountain
And Mont Sainte Hilaire on the horizon….say…

September is over

These are the words that we heard around us out in the wind
That we wrote and put into bottles to send messages with
And the things we were letting go of this lunar eclipse
Cuz if we don’t get it in the mail by noon…we’re doomed

And five roses up in the sky
And four pools of tears that I cried
And three miles up to the mountain
And Mont Sainte Hilaire on the horizon

And homeward before the eclipse comes
And forward before we forget
Something that we heard in the background
And Mont Sainte Hilaire on the horizon…say

September is over
