Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Love is a burning inside
Never had this feeling before, no
All I know is that it won't let me be myself
Hey, is this really love?
Oh, maybe that's the reason
Feel so good when you're around
Feel so good when you're around
[Verse 2]
Why can't I remember
The day I melted before your charms?
Oh, was it way back in September
When you held me in your arms?
Now that I see that you're the one for me
It's no more a mystery
Love has fallen down on me
Ooh, I'm in love with you
[Verse 3]
Love has fallen on me
Now I really see
Love has fallen on me
[Verse 4]
Ooh, what tender love you bring
Oh, no, it's not a game
Oh, what tender love you bring
Oh, no, no, it's not a game
Hey, what tender love you bring
[Verse 5]
I fell in love with you
Fell in love with you
One day in September, love came tumbling down on me
One day in September, love came tumbling down on me
One day in September, love came tumbling down on me
One day in September, love came tumbling down on me
[Verse 6]
Love is a burning inside
I've never had this feeling before, no
All I know is that it won't let me be myself
Hey, is this really love?
Oh, maybe that's the reason
I feel so good when you're around
Feel so good when you're around
[Verse 7]
Love has fallen on me
Now I really see
Love has fallen on me
[Verse 8]
Ooh, what tender love you bring
Oh no, Lord, I can't, oh Lord
And I can't believe my eyes
No, no, one day in September
Came on down
Oh, oh, fallin' down
Love came fallin' all around
[Verse 9]
I fell in love with you
Fell in love with you
One day in September, love came tumbling down on me
One day in September, love came tumbling down on me
One day in September, love came tumbling down on me
One day in September, love came tumbling down on me
[Verse 10]
One day in September, love came fallin' down on me
One day in September, love came fallin' down on me
One day in September, love came fallin' down on me
One day in September, love came fallin' down on me
[Verse 11]
One day in September, love came fallin' down on me
One day in September, love came fallin' down on me
One day in September, love came fallin' down on me
