As April Stumbled In

No, it wasn't long, contained in just one spring
How could I know? How could I know?
If I had been strong could I still hear you sing?
How could I know? How could I know?

I'm crying, here.
And I don't get how all my buttons
Fell into your hands so fast
And out again.
How can I be dreaming -- dreaming of a past
Whose time was oh, so thin?
Can you fill me in?

How I could so love you
When I knew nothing of you
As April stumbled in

I didn't ask for this, it just came along
But where did it go? Where did it go?
Now, like a fool, I miss your seductive siren song
How could I know? Where did it go?

I'm dying, here.
And I don't get how so much that I
Need is in your eyes -- a stranger's eyes
Not long ago.
How can I be starving for a new love that surprised
Me with the melting snow?
Could you just let me know?

How I could so love you
When I knew nothing of you
As April stumbled in

You said the day before you left
That I was your low-tech, high-maintenance boyfriend
But, at least I was your boyfriend
I want to be your boyfriend again

This is the classic dupe: just another hurt by love
How could I know? How could I know?
Now, I'm stuck in a loop 'cause you're all I'm thinking of
And don't you know how I love you so?

I'm trying here
But I can't get the motivation
Just to catch a woman's eye
If it's not yours.
Why am I so committed? I mean, this time it's not my
Heart closing doors
And tell me just once more

How I could so love you
When I knew nothing of you
As April stumbled in
