April
I woke up at dawn and April softly
Stole into my room
And spoke your name
And the whole world turned to April in that moment.
You were with me,
Then you were gone.
Now the long years into shadows hide
And April’s not the same
As we once knew.
And the long ago can’t live again
Nor April dressed in glory
Ever return.
It’s a long way back to April, Darling,
Where the winds of time
Still call to me.
So, if you return to April someday,
This I promise,
Somehow, I will be there.
