I'll Remember April
Andre Previn's Trio Jazz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This lovely day will lengthen into evening
We'll sigh goodbye to all we ever had
Alone where we have walked together
I'll remember April and be glad

I'll be content you loved me once in April
Your lips were warm and love and spring were new
I'm not afraid of autumn and her sorrow
For I'll remember April and you

The fire will dwindle into glowing ashes
For flames live such a little while




I won't forget but I won't be lonely
I'll remember April and smile

Andreas Hasenfratz

André Previn was one of the greatest and most creative jazz pianists and remarkable conductors who ever existed.

Ernest Tarling

Andre is just the greatest; changes keys all the time. Musicality and rhythm.

Susan Llequis

Costumbre de Los pianistas
de Jazz esprimir la sangre a la cancion como si únicamente existiera la melodía sin letra originalmente.Que pasa,sin conocer la letra quizás no hubiese escogido la canción.Previn es mi músico favorito como pianista,director y compositor.
