April was the one who always shared her food
Because April was a kind and gentle girl.
April was the one who said nothing crude
Because April was a kind and gentle girl.
April was the one who would tidy her room
Because April was a kind and gentle girl.
April was the one who loved holidays to Frome
Because April was a kind and gentle girl.
April was the one who hated saying goodbye
Because April was a kind and gentle girl.
April was the one who let her mother die
Because April was a kind and gentle girl.
