April The First - Del Amitri

I woke up to bells this morning, I woke up to birds

I woke up to someone yawning and that yawn was hers

I was dreaming of a scene where all my life was cursed

By the Law of Love which states that things will just get worse

When she turned 'round and said she loved me so much that it hurt

I thought it must be April the First

I put my hand upon my heart and swear I never leave

That she wanted love not just a room she could come to

I recall her asking me what I was born to do

I said, «There's no place for me, I’m simply passing through»

When she turned 'round and said she loved me so much that it hurt

I thought it must be April the First

And by the Law of Averages, this won’t last long

By the look of happiness, she’ll soon be gone

But by the looks of things, I could be wrong

I could be wrong

So we went down to Glittertown and bought ourselves a ring

When she announced that now she was in love with everything

But I could not unlock the pessimism in my soul

Surely scenes disasterly and rings and things get sold

When she turned 'round and said she loved me so much that it hurt

I thought it must be April the First

And by the Law of Averages, this won’t last long

By the look of happiness, she’ll soon be gone

But by the looks of things, I could be wrong

I could be wrong

I woke up to bells this morning, I woke up to birds

I woke up to someone yawning and that yawn was hers

I was dreaming of a scene where all my life was cursed

By the Law of Love which states that things will just get worse

When she turned 'round and said she loved me so much that it hurt

Yah when she turned 'round and said she loved me so much that it hurt

Well she turned 'round and said she loved me so much that it hurt

I thought it must be April the First
