September Song
101 Strings Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But the days grow short when you reach September
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game
Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November
And these few precious days I'll spend with you
The lyrics of 101 Strings Orchestra's September Song are a reflection on the fleeting nature of time and the urgency to cherish the moments we have with our loved ones. The opening line, "Oh, it's a long, long while from May to December" speaks to the distance between two points in time, but also hints at the possibility for change within that time frame. As the song continues, the lyrics shift to focus on the present moment, as September marks the turning point in the year when the autumn weather transforms the world around us. The leaves turning to flame is a metaphor for the power of change, of how we too must embrace transformation as we move through life.
The final verses bring the song full circle, drawing attention back to the preciousness of time spent with loved ones. "Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few" aptly captures the sense of urgency we often feel as we get older, aware that our time in this world is limited. But the final line is a hopeful one, promising that these precious days will be spent in the company of that special someone.

Oh, it's a long, long while from May to December
The time from May to December seems an endless duration
But the days grow short when you reach September
Days become shorter as September approaches
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
Autumn transforms leaves into vibrant colors resembling fire
One hasn't got time for the waiting game
There is no time to waste on playing games or waiting around
Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few
Days become rarer as time passes
September, November
Months in which time flies by quickly
And these few precious days I'll spend with you
These limited, special moments will be spent with someone dear

Le symphonie, l'extravagance, l'électricité, et romantisme de beaucoup de décennies des visions et des rêves de l'homme. Ils sont le meilleur ! If I can ever come close to producing something of this soulful quality, I'd die a happy man!

They´re like sparkling femme fatales or man fatales playing this song. When I hear them I wish we all and everybody always could be here in life were the action is. You doesn´t have to be wild to want that so wild. Will we be back and all beaty and thrills the same. Time will show.
