September Tea by Emi Meyer x David Liang
Lyrics to September Tea by Emi Meyer x David Liang
If autumn belonged to me
I would take these amber leaves
Throw them in a pot to watch them steep
September tea
If you or I
Ever lose track time
Pour a little bit to wet your lips
A reminder sip by sip
September it is just the beginning
September brings me closer to you
I’m betting our potion
Overpowers the ocean
A toast, a drink
A steadfast link
I’ll be back in a blink
September will be just the beginning
September draws me closer to you
If autumn comes to me
You can guess where I will be
A cozy rooftop, the skyline rests in
Our cup of September tea
