(David Lott, Glenn Gorden, Mark Chesnutt)

It's early May and the summer heat is comin' down

April's gone and my heart is nowhere to be found
Teardrops fall like showers from the sky
And what I'd give just to look in April's eyes
Another year goes by and I wait for her to return
She leaves a chill in my soul, but a fire always burns
And she can't break the tie that binds, so I'll never make her choose
I'll just go on being April's fool
So little time, when she is mine I know
I'll hold her close and never let it show
If I could only make her stay, God knows
I would, as she turns and walks away
I know I'll always remain April's fool
As she turns and walks away, I know
I'll always remain April's fool
It's early May and the summer heat is coming down
