April After All

It's really coming down Raining cats and hounds It's falling on parades And on the plans we made But there'll be other days And things will turn our way The rain has got to fall It's April after all Even the longest night Will lead you to daylight It's the way May leads to June And it's how I've come to you The world goes spinning round Life goes up and down And rain is bound to fall It's April after all They'll be other days Darling come what may The rain has got to fall It's April after all Tears are bound to fall It's April after all
