I wrote this song about a year ago now, it's just been sitting in my notes waiting to shine lol. I wrote it after seeing one of my long-time crushes again. I thought it'd be a good title for a song about two fools falling in love in April (much like the pic, aw they're holding on by the pinky) but it's really just about one fool lol. It has more of a slowed down tone to it but I'm really proud of the way the melody and the lyrics especially all fell into place. I think a good voice for this song could be Mason Chapello's so if he ever reads it, this is for you.
"April Fools"
Verse
I told myself I wouldn't do this again
But I believed in love right there and then
When I saw you again
I let myself fall back in time
You lead me to believe it'd all turn out just fine
But you weren't right
You think you can play me with your lies
I thought it was over at our last goodbye
But I can't see why you'd change your mind
You're just a trick I fall for every time
Chorus
So April fools / I'm an April fool
I fell for you, like I always do
April fools / I'm an April fool
I fall for you, every time I don't mean to
I know I'm in over my head
But you're the one I just can't forget
I knew it wasn't love you meant
But you tricked me and I fell for it
So April fools / I'm an April fool
I fell for you, you're the mess I always get myself into
Verse
I promised I wouldn't do this to myself
But I'll still believe in love with someone else
I will find you, once I find myself
I let myself fall back into this
You lead me to believe that you were it
But you weren't
You think you can play me with your lies
I thought it was over at our last goodbye
Now I can't see why you'd change your mind
You're just the trick I fall for every time
Chorus
So April fools / I'm an April fool
I fell for you, like I always do
April fools / I'm an April fool
I fall for you, every time I don't mean to
I know I'm in over my head
But you're the one I just can't forget
I knew it wasn't love you meant
But you tricked me and I fell for it
So April fools / I'm an April fool
I fell for you, you're the mess I always get myself into
Bridge
The joke's on me
I used to believe
That you could be
My everything
Now the joke's on you
You had no clue
What love could do
To you
Chorus
So April fools / I'm an April fool
I fell for you, like I always do
April fools / I'm an April fool
I fall for you, every time I don't mean to
I know I'm in over my head
But you're the one I just can't forget
I knew it wasn't love you meant
But you tricked me and I fell for it
So April fools / I'm an April fool
I fell for you, you're the mess I always get myself into
No I can't see why you'd ever change your mind,
You're just the trick I'll fall for every single time.
