There is someone walking behind you,  
turn around, look at me.  
There is someone watching your footsteps,  
turn around, look at me  
There is someone who really needs you,  
here’s my heart in my hand.  
Turn around, (turn around, ) look at me,  
(look at me, ) understand, understand.

When I woke up this morning  
You were on my mi-i-i-ind and  
You were on my mind  
I got troubles, whoa-oh  
I got worries, whoa-oh  
I got wounds to bind

The moment I wake up  
Before I put on my makeup  
I say a little pray for you  
While combing my hair now  
And wondering what dress to wear now  
I say a little prayer for you

My love and me as we sing  
Our early morning singing song.

I can’t withhold secrets  
I know where I’m going  
Where the sun always shines  
I know my son we’ve made it  
It can’t escape my mind  
I know my star, I know my star  
Is the brightest star, the brightest star  
Forever be in my arms  
Forever be in my arms

June, she’ll change her tune.  
In restless walks she’ll prowl the night.  
July, she will fly,  
And give no warning to her flight.

August, die she must.  
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold.  
September, I’ll remember.  
A love once new has now grown old.

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

Try to remember the kind of September  
When life was slow and oh so mellow  
Try to remember the kind of September  
When grass was green and grain so yellow
