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 was yellow)].
Try [to remember the kind (of September)
(when you were a tender and callow fellow)]
Try [to remember] and [if you remember], then follow,
(echo) follow, follow, follow, follow
follow, follow, follow, follow.
Try [to remember [when life was so tender
[that no one wept [except the willow]]].
Try [to remember [when life was so tender
[that dreams were kept [beside your pillow]]]].
Try [to remember [when life was so tender
[that love was an ember about to billow]]].
[chorus]
Deep [in December] it's nice
to remember
[altho' you know [the snow will follow]].
Deep [in December]
it's nice (to remember [[without a hurt] the heart is hollow]).
Deep [in December]
it's nice (to remember the fire (of September)
(that made you mellow)).
Deep [in December] our hearts should remember and follow
[chorus]
