I will awake in the September morning rain
and I will meet you by that willow tree you know
I will wait there for you until you come
and i will smile at the thought of you in my arms
when we meet we'll have the sweetest kiss of all
and we will talk and laugh like no time has passed at all
the sun will rise and set and we won't even know
and I will smile at the thought of you in my arms
if only this dream could last forever
i'd keep so cozy in my bed at night
but soon i'll wake and you'll be leaving
and i know that the day is here
the time has come for us to go our separate ways
but we will always have that willow tree you know
and there beneath the shade i'll wait for our embrace
and i will smile at the thought of you in my arms
those warm brown eyes of yours are so familiar
i could stay lost in them forever
i trace the playful crinkles shining on your face
and i will smile at the thought of you in my arms
the clouds float in and place a silk veil on the sun
and the sweet rain drops pitter patter above our heads
and there we'll have a dance under the dewey rainfall
and i will smile at the thought of you in my arms
if only this dream could last forever
i'd keep so cozy in my bed at night
but soon i'll wake and you'll be leaving
and i know that the day is here
the time has come for us to go our separate ways
but we will always have that willow tree you know
and there beneath the shade i'll wait for our embrace
and i will smile at the thought of you
and I will smile at the thought of you
and I will smile at the thought of you
