Wake me up when September ends
But never forgets what I lost
Songwriters: Billie Joe Armstrong, Michael Pritchard, Frank E., Iii Wright
As my memory rests
Becoming who we are
Here comes the rain again
Wake me up when September ends
Drenched in my pain again
Wake me up when September ends
Like my father's come to pass
Summer has come and passed
Like my father's come to pass
The innocent can never last

Twenty years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Like we did when spring began
Here comes the rain again
Drenched in my pain again
Wake me up when September ends
The innocent can never last
Summer has come and passed
Seven years has gone so fast
As my memory rests
The innocent can never last
Falling from the stars
Wake me up when September ends
But never forgets what I lost
Becoming who we are
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Ring out the bells again
Summer has come and passed
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Falling from the stars
