Ellis Paul - 17 Septembers Lyrics
Do you remember17 Septembers agoSweat on the backseatDylan on the radioYou peeled off your troublesWhen you peeled off your old blue jeansBut in the dash lightShe's like an angel fallen to earthAnd you convince yourself that she's worthEvery risk you took the night the cornfields shookBye, bye baby, in the click of handsHello yet-to-be mystery manOne night in a car changed who you areA boy a the front wheel17 Septembers have passed"Pop the clutch with your left heel..."You're linking up his future, your pastAnd you tell him, "Your mom and me were bound for trouble-Wedding bells at the age of 18..."But in the dash lightHe looks like an angel fallen to earthAnd now you know how it cold have been worseFor every risk you took the night the cornfield shookBye, bye baby, in the click of the handLook he's a yet-to-be mystery manWho played kick-the-canWith a glass filled with sand
