April Sun In Cuba - James Reyne

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

I found an April dream In Portugal with you When we discovered romance, like we never knew My head was in the clouds My heart went crazy too And madly I said "I love you" Too soon I heard you say "This dream is for a day" That's Porugal and love in April And when the showers fell Those tears I know so well They told me it was spring fooling me I found an April dream In Portugal with you When we discovered romance, like we never knew Then morning brought the rain And now my dream is through But still my heart says "I ba ba da da da dee, yes I love you" And Portugal too

I gotta message but I can't find the words to say I should have a plan but I lost it along the way Too many Chiefs and not enough Indians Somebody said oh no not him again I should of known it was going to be of those days Bridge ~ This one's going nowhere This one's flying high Feel like going out there One more time Chorus .1 ~ Some people make champagne out of water Some people just never have enough For some people it just keeps getting harder Who're you going to trust A man built a cave And he filled it with machines Now we've got a neon moon And we don't know what it means Too many folks just a hangin' around Don't know their ass From a hole in the ground I should of known It was going to be one of those scenes Bridge Chorus .2 ~ Some people make champagne out of water Some people have fallen to their knees For some people it just keeps getting harder Who're you trying to please Sit and watch while the candles burning Some people they never learn Sit and watch while the cities burning Some people they never learn Bridge Chorus .1 Chorus .2 Chorus .1 (Fade)
