Lyrics Two Franks - Frank Foster, Frank Wess, Count Basie

Two Franks

I can still see you standing there
Summer tangled in your hair
First week of July
First day of my life.
My voice swhen I said hello
and from that word we couldn’t take it slow
I still can’t believe
the way you looked at me.
Now the nights turn colder
your head’s on my shoulder
we do our best to pretend.
Waves get louder
I’m lost without her
as summer starts to end.
Let’s blame it on September
'cause is hurts to remember.
We can fight to hold on
but August is gone
And even if the sun falls
I hope we don’t lose it all
'cause no summer lasts forever.
Let’s blame it on September.
We drew hearts there in the sand
laughed when waves erased our plans
No we never knew
they told the truth.
I can still hear our laughing friends
as we’d sneak off again and again
No we never cared
too young to be scared.
The night turn colder
your head’s on my shoulder
as summer starts to end.
Let’s blame it on September
'cause is hurts to remember.
We can fight to hold on
but August is gone
And even if the sun falls
I hope we don’t lose it all
'cause no summer lasts forever.
On the beach in the heat
you know I needed that sweet ocean air.
We’re gonna go where I know we can be alone
I’ll wait for you, wait for you there.
Blame it on September.
We can try to hold on
but August is gone.
Let’s blame it on September
'cause is hurts to remember.
We can fight to hold on
but August is gone
When the sun falls
I hope we don’t lose it all
'cause no summer lasts forever.
Let’s blame it on September.
Blame it on September.
I can still see you standing there
summer tangled in your hair.
