The video was filmed in New York City and alternates studio shots of the trio singing with outdoor shots of lead singer Betty LeBron walking in the rain and reminiscing, with flashbacks to sunny scenes of better days with her former boyfriend.

All alone, silence fills my room But in a memory, I hear you calling me Close my eyes and I'm there with you Like it was yesterday, but then it fades away Take me back, turn back the hands of time When you kissed me in the warm September rain (warm September rain) Back before my heart was filled with pain If only we could be in love that way again If wishes came true Then all the dreams at night of love were real I'd be holding you If wishes came true Then I would be that someone always special in your heart And we would still be lovers, not apart If wishes came true Now you're gone and I'm on my own Feeling lost inside since you said goodbye In my dreams, I still feel your touch Lying next to me, feeling ecstasy Take me back, turn back the hands of time When you kissed me in the warm September rain (warm September rain) Back before my heart was filled with pain If only we could be in love that way again If wishes came true Then all the dreams at night of love were real I'd be holding you If wishes came true Then I would be that someone always special in your heart And we would still be lovers, not apart If wishes came true I love you madly I need you badly Give our love one more chance If wishes came true Then all the dreams at night of love were real I'd be holding you If wishes came true Then I would be that someone always special in your heart And we would still be lovers, not apart If wishes came true
