Do you remember the 21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away.

Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing.
As we danced in the night,
Remember how the stars stole the night away.

Ba de ya – Say do you remember?
Ba de ya – Dancing in September?
Ba de ya – Never was a cloudy day.

My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you.
Only blue talk and love,
Remember how we knew love was here to stay.

Now December found the love that we shared in September.
Only blue talk and love,
Remember the true love we share today

Ba de ya – Say do you remember?
Ba de ya – Dancing in September?
Ba de ya – Never was a cloudy day.

Ba de ya – Say do you remember?
Ba de ya – Dancing in September?
Ba de ya – Golden dreams were shiny days.
