Summer [bad word] and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends

Like my [bad word] to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
 [bad word] the rain again
falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again [bad word] who we are

As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends

Summer [bad word] 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
 [bad word] the rain again
falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again [bad word] who we are

As my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends

Summer [bad word] and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends

Like my [bad word] 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...
