April Showers Lyrics

When the April showers
Blur the horizon disconsolately fishermen
Bring their boats slowly back to the shore
When April showers
Send housewives hurrying outdoors to salvage rows
Of white washing hanging on the line

I know that summer's just 'round the corner
Playing hide and seek as it keeps us all waiting

And through those melancholy winters
How cold the nights could be
My imitation of contentment was a parody
And through those chilled and cheerless winters
Co-comfort came slowly to an end
Every cloud lost its silver lining
Having fun was playing a game of pretend
Then April showers
Release the sweet scent of blossoming trees to ride the wind Go down to mingle with the salt-sea air

I know that summer's just 'round the corner
Playing hide and seek as it keeps us all waiting

And through those melancholy winters
How cold the nights could be
My imitation of contentment was a parody
And through those chilled and cheerless winters
Co-comfort came slowly to an end
What we missed then, most of all was our indisputable right
To laughter

And through those melancholy winters
How cold the nights could be
My imitation of contentment was a parody
And through those melancholy winters
How cold the nights could be
My imitation of contentment was a parody
