V1

I’m just an April Fool

‘Cause I’ve been a fool for you,

I thought I’d found a love so rare,

but then you left without a care.

V2

They say that April showers

bring May flowers, but my dear,

Tears are running down my face and

love's bloom faded without a trace.

Bridge/Chorus

When March came in like a lamb

I thought I'd found love,

but March went out like a lion

and now that April's come,

the rains keep falling from above.

V3

In dreams, I wake with you each morning,

Yet you left me without warning,

Birdsong replaced by the mourning dove,

I miss your sweet song so much.

V4

June will bring her summer splendor

but I'll save my valentine and not surrender

a hope that you'll return again

Or that my broken heart will mend.

Repeat Bridge/Chorus

When March came in like a lamb

I thought I'd found love

but March went out like a lion,

and now that April's come

the rains keep falling from above.
