April's new song

 
I'll be here missing my home,
The warm smiles you all gave,
April's every new song
Living and belonging to today.
 
Many years ago you would say hello
Under our tree, there in the shade.
We made our vows as children,  
And there in the shade we stayed.
 
But now we count the days
Faster than stars show at night.
Tears fall as we look back our way
At all that made our futures bright.
 
And there's a pain in my heart
Every time I think about how
Everyone's running ahead,
And I know I can never go back now.
 
I'll be joining all my friends
Who can only look back and miss the days,
And wonder if we could ever really stay
To linger in April, knowing it'll be May.
