21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away
While chasing the clouds away


Our hearts were ringing
Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing.
In the key that our souls were singing
As we danced in the night,
As we danced in the night
Remember how the stars stole the night away
Remember how the stars stole the night away


Ba de ya - say do you remember
Hey hey hey
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya, say do you remember
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day
Ba de ya, dancing in September
Ba de ya, never was a cloudy day
