Chris De Burgh - The Girl With April In Her Eyes Lyrics
There once was a king, who called for the spring,
For his world was still covered in snow,
But the spring had not been, for he was wicked and mean,
In his winter-fields nothing would grow;
And when a traveller called seeking help at the door,
He ordered his slave to turn her away,
The girl with April in her eyes...
Oh, oh, oh, on and on she goes,
Through the winter's night, the wild wind and the snow,
Hi, hi, hi, on and on she rides,
Someone help the girl with April in her eyes...
She rode through the night till she came to the light,
Of a humble man's home in the woods,
And he buried her gently and good;
Oh the morning was bright, all the world was snow-white,
But when he came to the place where she lay,
His field was ablaze with flowers on the grave,
Of the girl with April in her eyes...
Oh, oh, oh, on and on she goes,
Through the winter's night, the wild wind and the snow,
Hi, hi, hi, on and on she flies,
She is gone, the girl with April in her eyes...

Chris De Burgh The Girl With April In Her Eyes Comments
It's so amazing, my mom used to listen to that song all the time when I was younger and she was cooking dinner for me. Sometimes she would translate the lyrics because I didn't speak English at this point, but sometimes she just closed her eyes and smiled.
For me it was always just a song my mom loved but a few months ago I moved away to another town and sometimes I just like to come here, then I close my eyes and think about the good old times.
명곡입니다
Simply the best....
Fantastic , had the pleasure of seeing Chris in Thailand, what a concert! Absolutely terrific night.

my most favourite song
Just beautiful.
Yes, the Kings of the world all overlook the beautiful Queens who find shelter in real good people!!
I love this song so much and can barely forget it since I heard it for the first time, 30 + years ago. Whenever I listen to it, the story will pop up into my mind. It really catches my soul completely.
This song reminds of all the beautiful women of this harsh world like Marilyn Monroe who have been used abused and just left to perish at the hands of powerful people in pursuit of their own greedy ends.
Women should have nothing to prove in this world just have their inner beauty admired and cherished
I married a girl in September 1978. We had one Christmas together and she died on February 14th 1979, five months after we wed. She was my girl with April in her eyes. No words can ..............
제가 좋아가수 소중한 소리
just in April my eyes the girl
This song makes me sad and wanting to cry and I love it for that.
That's why i always called Chris De Burgh a poet of sadness.
It's amazing!
no lyrics, no video
He is just so incredibly talented! His choice of lyrics, musical instruments, their tones, and his unique voice. He's amazing. He's blessed the world with his passion. We're fortunate to have made the journey with him.
that initial cello.... oh gosh
this song is a master piece
好美的歌
Crusader is such an underrated album. Different subjects and emotions going on.
Soñar y amar con el sonido de esta cancion es divino
오래전에 좋아했던 곡을 다시 들을수있어 감사합니다
Do you still have "Official very rare CD, Label Polygram, 1997, Concert 1979 in Southafrica"? and how much you want?
I cry whenever i listen to this song ,so impressive
Her grave was ablaze....
Uhm Blaze a scent from heaven. Not for me 😁
Firstly, Salute to my late friends who taught me this tune - Stan Cat and Steve Cat. This song takes me back to my days in Chatsworth, Durban, South Africa- back in the 80's. Salute to me mates -Morgan, Marco, Colin, Barney..guys we tried but had no luck (we tried to form a band but that never happened but still remained friends and still dig the tunes). Rock n Roll Soldiers we remain
Suddenly remind from memory, this song had been hide for 30 yrs
Some artists past their peak in popularity will hold special live concerts to replay one of their old albums from cover to cover. I would love for Chris de Burgh to perform this excellent album.
Amazing...
