April Come She Will Lyrics
[Verse 1]
April, come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain
May, she will stay
Resting in my arms again
[Verse 2]
June, she’ll change her tune
In restless walks, she’ll prowl the night
July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight
[Verse 3]
August, die she must
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold
September, I’ll remember
A love once new has now grown old
April, come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain
May, she will stay
Resting in my arms again
[Verse 2]
June, she’ll change her tune
In restless walks, she’ll prowl the night
July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight
[Verse 3]
August, die she must
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold
September, I’ll remember
A love once new has now grown old
About
Genius Annotation
In Simon’s own words:
When I was living in England, about three years ago, four years ago, I worked in a club in a town called Swindon. It’s about 100 miles north of London. I spent the night with a friend of mine in a smaller village called Great Coxswell, not that it means anything, no pun intended. We’d stayed up all night and talked and I said to her “Let’s go out in the morning and do it” (Laughs from audience) You too huh?
We went out at dawn and she recited an English nursery rhyme, it was a children’s rhyme and it was about a cuckoo, a bird. It went “April come she will. May she will stay, June she’ll change her tune. July she will fly. August die she must.”
