Well your smile's been broken by
a hundred cloudy days
you're heading down to California
because the living is easy there
nobody knows your name
but it's only time before they find you
Cause you just can't name your enemies
when you don't know what they've done
you get so strung out on all their gossip
it becomes your only source of fun
But April yeah you're doing fine
writing down your column in the Portland times
listening to the records of the friends you've known
trying to hear their stories and the truths they've told
And the sun falls fast in the winter sky
but these clouds are going to stay a while
try your best to show a smile now
April
Well It gets so dark down there
in your basement room
sometimes its days before the sun shines
and you get so tired there
your bed fits like a womb
sometimes its hard to see the point in trying
But you stay that way
when you stay alone
you don't answer the door
you don't pick up the phone
and the smoke turns the room a hazy blue
those old habits
they fall over you
But April yeah you're doing fine
writing down your column in the Portland times
listening to the records of the friends you've known
trying to hear their stories and the truths they've told
And the sun falls fast in the winter sky
but these clouds are going to stay a while
try your best to show a smile now
April
try your best to show a smile now
April
try your best to show a smile now
April
