I'll remember April

This lovely day   will lengthen into evening,
we'll sigh goodbye to all we ever had.
Alone  where we have walked together,
I'll remember April and be glad.

I'll be content  you loved me once in April.
Your lips were warm   and love and spring were new.
But I'm not afraid of   Autumn and her sorrow,
for  I'll remember   April and you.

The fire will dwindle into   glowing ashes,
for flames and love live  such a little while.
I won't forget and I won't be lonely,
I'll remember April and I'll smile.
