Lyrics
VERSE:
There ain?t no flowers on the ground I walk
No future looking backwards
There?s just the memory of the time I saw
All that I once could?ve captured
PRE-CHORUS:
April rain knocked upon my door
And it promised me the spring
CHORUS:
But April rain don?t mean a thing
It?s just some story they tell you to drown the pain
April rain don?t bring a thing
Only heartache and sorrow and fighting in vain
April rain, April rain
VERSE:
She made a promise she?d be back in May
After the storms we?d just hear laughter
But then she met him and they went their way
To live in beauty ever after
PRE-CHORUS:
April rain pounds inside my head
And it shatters all my dreams
CHORUS:
April rain don?t mean a thing
It?s just some story they tell you to drown your pain
April rain don?t bring a thing
Only heartache and sorrow and fighting in vain
April rain, April rain
BRIDGE:
You went to find your place in the world
But you knew I was waiting
I should never have believed you girl
And all your stories of the flowers that would c
Come after the showers of that April Rain, oh no
VERSE:
Still ain?t no flowers on the ground I walk
But I can?t help looking backwards
Into the memory of the time I saw
That girl whose heart I couldn?t capture
PRE-CHORUS:
April rain still knocks upon my door
But I don?t expect a thing, oh no, oh no
CHORUS:
?Cos April rain don?t mean a thing
It?s just some story they tell you to drown your pain
April rain don?t bring a thing
Only heartache and sorrow and fighting in vain
April rain don?t mean a thing
It?s just some story they tell you to drown your pain
April rain don?t bring a thing
Only heartache and sorrow and fighting in vain
April Rain, April Rain
