SONG LYRICS
IN APRIL
Written by Jenny Lewis and Johnathan Rice
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
why did you fly away?
i 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
why did you fly away?
i been dying 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
