lyrics

On the last day of April
She left me alone
I asked her to stay
But her heart it was stone
She said she didn’t love me
And I knew it was true
So I opened the door
And she went on through.

I kept the lines open
With no hope of reply
As far as I knew
She had took to the sky
I called and I called
But no answer she gave
She kept up her silence
And broke me in half.

One day I sat drinking
my troubles away
now realizing
they were here to stay
I opened the door
And to my surprise
She stood there
with so many tears in her eyes

She told me what
Life had been like since she left
About Roger and all
Of the scars that he left
After coming so far
She landed back on the street
With no money or hope
To get up on her feet.

We were married at Christmas
For the whole world to see
I was just happy
To have her back here with me.

Then I started, and woke up
Looked out at the lawn
It was the last day of April
And she was still long, long gone.
