In April Lyrics

The day we met my life was changed

I always heard that love was strange
and painful

painful

One night you slept upon your side

tangled in white you looked just like

an angel

an angel

So why did you fly away?

I've been dying a little death

since that very day

I used to laugh, when you told me

you must forget and forgive

to be free

Down by the water, dressed in black

I swore revenge to get you back

hateful

hateful

I made my camp upon the hill
drank whiskey from the secret still

blameful

blameful

So why did you fly away?

I've been dying a little death

since that very day

I used to laugh, when you told me

you must forget and forgive

to be free

And I never could admit

the part I had in it

so this is what I get, my friend
Drunk in a field of scarlet snow

I reconciled with your ghost

In april

april

I stood before the hypocrite

there in the mirror brightly lit

shameful

shameful

Now, I know why you ran away

and I've been dying a little death

since that very day

I used to laugh, when you told me

you must forget and forgive

you must forgive just to live

you must forget and forgive

to be free
