Lyrics

[female

vocals] (

Acoustic

guitar

gentle

picking,

soft

pedal

steel

swell)

It

was

March

of

twenty-twenty-two,

the

air

was

cooling

down

We

met

out

in

a

field

behind

that

party

house

in

town

We

went

to

get

some

fish

and

chips,

a

simple

kind

of

start

I

rode

inside

your

passenger

seat,

not

knowing

I’

d

lose

my

heart

I

was

fading

on

the

table,

drifting

off

to

sleep

You

kept

on

waking

me

right

up,

promises

we

couldn't

keep

And

when

the

night

was

ending

and

we

had

to

say

goodbye

I

felt

a

strange

heaviness

deep

inside,

I

couldn't

tell

you

why.

Oh,

I

didn't

want

to

leave

you

then,

I

didn't

want

to

go

I

was

tangled

in

a

life

I

didn't

want,

but

you

didn't

know

Yeah,

the

wheels

were

turning

on

the

road,

I

was

looking

back

at

you

Trying

to

find

a

way

to

make

a

broken

heart

feel

true

It

was

the

start

of

something

quiet,

something

I

couldn't

name

Before

the

April

rain

came

down

and

nothing

felt

the

same.

I

was

still

tied

to

a

shadow,

to

a

love

that

had

gone

cold

But

there

was

something

in

your

silence

that

was

worth

more

than

gold

So

I

started

asking

questions,

checking

on

the

kind

of

man

Who

didn't

chase

the

shallow

thrills

or

have

a

cheating

plan

I

heard

you

were

a

steady

soul,

a

man

who

played

it

straight

And

that’

s

the

moment

that

I

knew

I’

d

tempted

fate

We

turned

from

strangers

into

friends,

a

slow

and

steady

climb

Trying

to

heal

the

pieces

that

we’

d

lost

along

the

line.

Oh,

I

didn't

want

to

leave

you

then,

I

didn't

want

to

go

I

was

tangled

in

a

life

I

didn't

want,

but

you

didn't

know

Yeah,

the

wheels

were

turning

on

the

road,

I

was

looking

back

at

you

Trying

to

find

a

way

to

make

a

broken

heart

feel

true

It

was

the

start

of

something

quiet,

something

I

couldn't

name

Before

the

April

rain

came

down

and

nothing

felt

the

same.

Then

April

twenty-three

rolled

round,

the

sun

was

shining

bright

But

that

friendship

that

we

built,

it

faded

out

of

sight

How

does

a

fire

turn

to

ash

when

the

wind

begins

to

blow?

How

do

you

let

a

memory

go

when

you

still

love

them

so?

I

look

back

at

that

table

now,

the

fish,

the

long

delay

I’

d

give

anything

to

go

back

to

that

March

day

Before

the

labels,

before

the

hurt,

before

the

world

got

wide

When

I

was

just

a

girl

with

nowhere

left

to

hide

Now

it’

s

just

the

silence

and

the

ghost

of

what

we

knew

Another

year

has

passed

us

by,

and

I’

m

still

missing

you.

Oh,

I

didn't

want

to

leave

you

then,

I

didn't

want

to

go

I

was

tangled

in

a

life

I

didn't

want,

but

you

didn't

know

Yeah,

the

wheels

were

turning

on

the

road,

I

was

looking

back

at

you

Trying

to

find

a

way

to

make

a

broken

heart

feel

true

It

was

the

start

of

something

quiet,

something

I

couldn't

name

Before

the

April

rain

came

down

and

nothing

felt

the

same.

Yeah,

nothing

feels

the

same

Just

the

echo

of

your

name

April

gone,

March

behind

You’

re

still

resting

on

my

mind (

Fade

out

with

pedal

steel)
