lyrics

oh shit, it doesn’t feel like springtime
it doesn’t feel like april
i don’t feel her heavy sigh

she rolls her eyes then walks away
turns around and says
“shit, i think i’ll move to texas in may”

it never rains in april, i’m on my knees
beggin’ you please, please april
baby, won’t you stay?

you and i could dance alone upon the open road
i could follow you into the wild west unknown
go and find your long lost peace of mind

my best friend seth stole you from me
he's got a perfect haircut
and a master's in d-d-divinity

sermons on high, never pushed his beliefs
ooh, he transcends mortality
baptizing babies in the sea

i can't compete, but april i’m on my knees
begging ya please, please, please, please
please

you and i could dance alone upon the open road
i could follow you into the wild west unknown
if you leave i’ll spend forever wishing you were home
go and find your long lost peace of mind
will you find that god damn piece of mind?

no
