Lost April, where did you go
Like the winter snow I saw you vanish
Lost April, so soft and warm
A memory not even time can banish
Lost April, that taught me this
A single kiss could lead to heaven
But April had numbered days
So when they passed, love couldn't last
I lost love and you and April, too
