September Grass Lyrics - October Road - James Taylor

Well, the sun's not so hot in the sky today 

And you know I can see summertime slipping on away 

A few more geese are gone, a few more leaves turning red 

But the grass is as soft as a feather in a featherbed 

So I'll be king and you'll be queen 

Our kingdom's gonna be this little patch of green 

Won't you lie down here right now 

In this september grass 

Won't you lie down with me now 

September grass 

Oh the memory is like the sweetest pain 

Yeah, I kissed the girl at a football game 

I can still smell the sweat and the grass stains 

We walked home together. I was never the same. 

But that was a long time ago 

And where is she now? I don't know 

Won't you lie down here right now 

In this september grass 

Won't you lie down with me now 

September grass 

Oh, september grass is the sweetest kind 

It goes down easy like apple wine 

Hope you don't mind if I pour you some 

Made that much sweeter by the winter to come 

Do you see those ants dancing on a blade of grass? 

Do you know what I know? that's you and me, baby 

We're so small and the world's so vast 

We found each other down in the grass 

Won't you lie down with me right here 

September grass 

Won't you lie down with me now 

In this september grass 

Lie down 

Lie down 

Lie down 

Lie down 

(repeat) 

Won't you lie down here right now 

In this september grass 

Won't you lie down here now 

In this september grass
