(I’m just an) April Fool
Song Lyrics for a Show Tune
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.
