When I was a young man courting the girls |
| [00:26.75] |
but I played me a waiting game. |
| [00:30.19] |
|
| [00:31.57] |
If a maid refused me with tossing curls |
| [00:35.83] |
let Id the old earth take a couple of twirls |
| [00:38.81] |
|
| [00:39.95] |
And Id ply her with tears instead of pearls |
| [00:44.72] |
|
| [00:45.79] |
And as time came around, she came my way |
| [00:51.27] |
|
| [00:52.21] |
As time came around, she came |
| [00:57.79] |
|
| [01:03.96] |
its But a long, long while from may to december |
| [01:13.95] |
|
| [01:17.10] |
And the days grow short when you reach september. |
| [01:27.13] |
|
| [01:30.53] |
The autumn weather turns the leaves to flame |
| [01:40.22] |
|
| [01:43.75] |
And I havent got the time for the waiting game. |
| [01:53.46] |
|
| [01:57.05] |
Oh, the days dwindle down to precious few; |
| [02:08.21] |
|
| [02:10.67] |
September, november. |
| [02:20.61] |
|
| [02:21.99] |
And these few precious days Ill spend with you. |
| [02:31.56] |
|
| [02:36.28] |
These precious days Ill spend with you. |
