When There Was September

I hope you didn't forget
Everything we had
It was one, one special moment
I wish could come back

How we would drive the coast of Maine
And our lips met in the pouring rain every September
When we were young, I didn't know a thing

When there was September
We didn't waste a thing
When there was September
You promised you'd remember
The coast, you and I
I gave you my heart
I got back every part
You left me with nothin' but the coast and my heart

So I hear you're doing fine
I guess I don't cross your mind
But don't you know you're always on mine?
As I sit here and those waves crash
It brings me back to simple times

So hold your breath and count to 3
Close your eyes and take it in
'Cause now you regret loosing me
You know you'll die without me

When there was September
We didn't waste a thing
When there was September
You promised you'd remember
The coast, you and I
I gave you my heart, I got back every part
You left me with nothin' but the coast and my heart

I remember how you tasted
The way you held me
I fell head over heels
For you to leave me like this
But I relized you're just like all the rest

When we're young we're dumb
And I do regret that summer
That was full of regrets
But be strong and move on, the past is gone, but I can't stop
and I won't stop thinking of you

When there was September
We didn't waste a thing
When there was September
You promised you 'd remember
The coast, you and I
I gave you my heart I got back every part
You left me with nothin'
But the coast and my heart
Oooooh, yeah
Don't forget

Listen, I know that this song is TERRIBLE. Feel free to give some construcive criticism, I need it!

This "song" (if you can call it that;) was inspired by a recent trip that I took in September in combination with a band called The Maine and their major influences. It means a lot more to me than it does to you, but I guess that it has a universal meaning: love is a struggle.

-Some say holding on is what makes us strong. Sometimes, it takes more strength to let go and move on.
-Don't go where the path may lead; go instead were there is no path and leave a trail behind you.

I really like it, especially the part where you say "You left me with nothin' but the coast and my heart".The only thing that i'd change are the lines where you say "When we're young we're dumb and I do regreat that summer that was full of regrets". It just seems a bit repetitive. But otherwise, good job!
