I woke up, baby
to find you gone - long gone
now I wake up, baby
turn my sunbed on - turn it on
oh I really love your mind though I can't forget your body
I really love your mind though I can't forget your body
I really love your mind though I can't forget your body
I think about it all night long
late september
summer's over
can't remember
where the love has gone
see you later alligator
don't forget - turn your sunbed on
we broke up, baby
seems the die was cast - too fast
now I break up, baby
when I re-live the past - free at last
well it started as a virtue but it soon became a vice
it started as a virtue but it soon became a vice
I never meant to hurt you but I'm cold as ice
I heard you crying all night long
late september
summer's over
can't remember
where the love has gone
see you later alligator
don't forget - turn your sunbed on
all by myself it runs so deep
I cry myself to restless sleep
a dream surreal, a new game to play
these things I feel in such an artificial way
I woke up, baby
found the summer's gone - long gone
now I wake up, baby
turn my sunbed on - turn it on
and I won't even try to justify my sunglasses
won't even try to justify my sunglasses
won't even try to justify my sunglasses
you'll hear me crying all day long
late september
summer's over
can't remember
where the love has gone
see you later alligator
don't forget - turn your sunbed on
yeah
turn it on
whenever you can
turn it on
you know that you can
