April makes us eager
Old ideas flow back and find new ground
We're so pleased to see you
I work real hard to make you good again

Pretty girl in the busy room
You don't know why but she bothers you
Father walks his two kids to school
Holding hands down Bellevue avenue

Let's take a stroll
And watch the boats sink
And all that once was sad becomes so beautiful
We found love for everything
And in the wonder of this fling
Forget that hope's a persuasive thing
Hope's a persuasive thing

Spend the summer in the fever
Now all doubts knock you right back down
And I don't wake up in the mornings anymore
No I don't fill my days with things I've heard about

Pretty girl in the busy room
You don't know why but she bothers you
Father walks his two kids to school
Holding hands down Bellevue avenue

Let's take a stroll
And watch the boats sink
And all that once was sad becomes so beautiful now
We found love for everything
And in the wonder of this fling
Forget that hope's a persuasive thing
Hope's a persuasive thing
