lyrics

April Girl
Dave Gunning/ JP Cormier

April girl sing me a song
Before the edge of day is gone
The dusk is red and it stands on fire
Into the hills we must retire

An open sky will light the way
When we’ll return we cannot say
We’ll leave the world of men behind
For what they search and never find

And we’ll watch the sunrise from the hill
Wandering heart forever still
Like a long forgotten symphony
April girl sing for me

April girl forget the past
Love built this house, it’s made to last
What shook the earth has danced and gone
And now lies at rest within your song

And we’ll watch the sunrise from the hill
Wandering heart forever still
Like a long forgotten symphony
April girl sing for me

The dust from the pages
Ever turns and ever changes
The words may run and fade
But never away

One day the wind shall speak our names
As it blows out life’s sacred flame
One last ride upon the wings
Through Winter’s heart reborn in Spring
