April in Texas - Station Men

The day we met my life was changed I always heard that love was strange And painful Painful One night you slept upon your side Tangled in white you looked just like An angel An angel So why did you fly away? I've been dying a little death Since that very day I used to laugh, when you told me You must forget and forgive To be free Down by the water, dressed in black I swore revenge to get you back Hateful Hateful I made my camp upon the hill Drank whiskey from the secret still Blameful Blameful So why did you fly away? I've been dying a little death Since that very day I used to laugh, when you told me You must forget and forgive To be free And I never could admit The part I had in it So this is what I get, my friend Drunk in a field of scarlet snow I reconciled with your ghost In april April I stood before the hypocrite There in the mirror brightly lit Shameful Shameful Now, I know why you ran away And I've been dying a little death Since that very day I used to laugh, when you told me You must forget and forgive You must forgive just to live You must forget and forgive To be free
