September
Famous Oberogo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you remember the 21st night of September?
Love was changin' the minds of pretenders
While chasin' the clouds away
Our hearts were ringin' in the key that our souls were singin'
As we danced in the night, remember
How the stars stole the night away

Hey, hey, hey!
Ba-dee ya, say, do you remember?
Ba-dee ya, dancin' in September
Ba-dee ya, never was a cloudy day

Ba duda, ba duda, ba duda, badu
Ba duda, badu, ba duda, badu
Ba duda, badu, ba duda

My thoughts are with you, holdin' hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love, remember
How we knew love was here to stay
Now in December, found the love that we shared in September
Only blue talk and love, remember, the true love we share today

Hey, hey, hey!
Ba-dee ya, say, do you remember?
Ba-dee ya, dancin' in September
Ba-dee ya, never was a cloudy day
Break it down for me

(Da!) Say, do you remember?
(Ba-ba-ba!) Ooh, dancin' in September
(Ba-ba-ba-da-da) (Ba-dee ya)
Do you wanna dance?

(Ba-dee ya, say, do you remember?) Hee, hee




(Ba-dee ya, dancin' in September) Oh, in September, no
(Ba-dee ya, never was a cloudy day) Ba-dee ya, never was a cloudy day
