Jesus And Mary Chain, The - April Skies Lyrics






Hey honey what you trying to say
As I stand here
Don't you walk away
And the world comes tumbling down
Hand in hand in a violent life
Making love on the edge of a knife
And the world comes tumbling down
And it's hard
For me to say
And it's hard
For me to stay
I'm going down
To be by myself
I'm going back
For the good of my health
And there's one thing
I couldn't do
Sacrifice myself to you
Sacrifice
Baby baby I just can't see
Just what you mean to me
I take my aim and I fake my words
I'm just your long time curse
And if you walk away
I can't take it
But that's the way that you are
And that's the things that you say
But now you've gone too far
With all the things you say
Get back to where you come from
I can't help it
Under the April skies
Under the April sun
Sun grows cold
Sky gets black
And you broke me up
And now you won't come back
Shaking hand, life is dead
And a broken heart
And a screaming head
Under the April sky

    [Verse 1]
    Hey, honey, what you trying to say?
    As I stand here, don't you walk away
    And the world comes tumbling down
    Hand in hand in a violent life
    Making love on the edge of a knife
    And the world comes tumbling down

    [Chorus 1]
    And it's hard for me to say
    And it's hard for me to stay
    I'm going down to be by myself
    I'm going back for the good of my health
    And there's one thing I couldn't do
    Sacrifice myself to you
    Sacrifice

    [Verse 2]
    Baby, baby, I just can't see
    Just what you mean to me
    I take my aim and I fake my words
    I'm just your longtime curse
    And if you walk away
    I can't take it

    [Chorus 2]
    But that's the way that you are
    And that's the things that you say
    But now you've gone too far
    With all the things you say
    Get back to where you come from
    I can't help it, under the April skies
    Under the April skies
    Under the April sun
    Under the April skies

    Under the April sun
    Under the April sun
    Under the April skies
    Under the April sun
    Under the April skies

    [Verse 3]
    The sun grows cold, the sky gets black
    And you broke me up and now you won't come back
    Shaking hand, life is dead
    And a broken heart and a screaming head
    Hey, hey

    [Outro]
    Under the April skies
    Under the April sun
    Under the April skies
    Under the April skies

    I wonder if this video is the basis for the Goth Kids from South Park (their leader, the way they dance etc)?

  13. V.... D....

  22. K.... W....

    80s Scottish indie - wish I could go back there but at least YouTube lets me imagine it for a while.

  23. V.... R....

    WALKING DEAD!!!!!!

    V.... R....

    shut up your son of the fucker mother mouth

    V.... R....

    @Eduardo bracamonte alvarez Calm down, mate!

  24. A.... W....

    Weren't these guys brothers? Who cares. They fucking rocked. They were one of the best of post modern. If musical justice prevailed they would be down with The Stones, Beatles, Queen, and some other cool bands most people don't know. AKA Replacements, DrivinNCryin, Son Volt, and another who has. Wilco

  25. E.... M....

    Fuck TWD !
    My old age brought me here.

  26. P.... S....

    237 people need their ears syringeing.

  27. N.... V....

    Mais alguem veio por causa de the walking dead? nice song

  28. P.... C....

    Fire 🔥

  29. H.... X....

    Apparently this song reminds someone of me...

  30. S.... ....

    Emotional song, Rock will never Die 👆

  31. J.... E....

    I was blessed enough to have this through my teens and every decade that's followed.

  32. J.... S....

    2019? Anyone? Great music for a traffic jam!

  33. R.... r....

    Sublime.. such a rich guitar sound

  34. E.... J....

    JAMC rules le planet.

  35. M.... R....

    Just nearly to end the book about Jesus and Mary Chain I am reading . Douglas Hart appear a lot on this book . It's is so good !!! Amazing History about them and the way they used to live with Family when they were teenager .

  36. M.... D....

    Great band I just wish they made an effort to breathe. 😂🤣😂

  37. B.... L....

    Perfect band

  38. M.... R....

    UNIQUE that's it . FULL STOP

  39. C.... G....

    Ty boys

  40. J.... ....

    Can't stop listening. 🎧 Such a beautiful song 💚

  41. P.... G....

    The lead guitar sound is truly epic. It's been in my mind since I first heard it. It will never leave me. I know it may sound daft to some but because I've never seen this video before, I always pictured two singers in this group. One called Jesus Chain on lead vocals and the other, maybe his sister Mary Chain on backing vocals. That all changed when I saw the video for the first time.

  42. t.... ....

    Hey honey what you trying to say
    As I stand here
    Don't you walk away
    And the world comes tumbling down
    Hand in hand in a violent life
    Making love on the edge of a knife
    And the world comes tumbling down
    And it's hard
    For me to say
    And it's hard
    For me to stay
    I'm going down
    To be by myself
    I'm going back
    For the good of my health
    And there's one thing
    I couldn't do
    Sacrifice myself to you
    Sacrifice
    Baby baby I just can't see
    Just what you mean to me
    I take my aim and I fake my words
    I'm just your long time curse
    And if you walk away
    I can't take it
    But that's the way that you are
    And that's the things that you say
    But now you've gone too far
    With all the things you say
    Get back to where you come from
    I can't help it
    Under the april skies
    Under the april sun
    Sun grows cold
    Sky gets black
    And you broke me up
    And now you won't come back
    Shaking hand, life is dead
    And a broken heart
    And a screaming head
    Under the april sky

  43. t.... ....

    woohooooooooooooooo beautiful this song always get my blood flowing

  44. c.... j....

    Actually, TWD, not TED. And Scott Gimple is no longer head writer for the show...it can only get better.

  45. c.... j....

    Ripping ass guitar work. Ironical, was watching the walking dead last night when they took a group of strays to hilltop. Thanks, jesus......sorry they killed you off. Anybody who watches Ted knows. They need to get rid of Scott gimple..asshole really ruined the show for a lot of people with his sorry ass writing on the show...hope you read this, gimple.

    c.... j....

    did he kill off beth ?? if so then he did ruin twd

    c.... j....

    @mike romano Scott Gimple was indeed writing for the show at that point. Definitely didn't ruin the show for me though.

  46. T.... E....

    Fav band of all time

  47. N.... T....

    Will this fix me

  48. N.... ....

    When a song contains an electric guitar I automatically expect a solo after the 2nd refrain
    And it leaves me disapointed to find none, but that's just me...

  49. B.... W....

    i Love This Song 🤩

  50. C.... B....

    They Are so dirty... And mi mind Floattin' like poetry i sacrifice myself to 6u

    C.... B....

  51. J.... K....

    Well Jesus listens to it too recently!

  52. K.... 7....

    Kick on.

  53. G.... D....

    JAMC are my bible, love their industrial blues sound.

    G.... D....

    They've got a unique sound. The brothers, Jim- I think in particular, have had quite a reputation lol. In the beginning they'd play a short set with their backs turned to the crowd. Plus their notorious tempers.

    G.... D....

    @DK ALBRYTE there's pain in William's guitaring as is there in Jim's vocals, it's unpretentious music and a breathe of fresh air lyrically. I saw them a lot later ( munki album era) in Edinburgh, got the whole set with a few added in, was great.

    G.... D....

    @Graham Dickson I'd die to see them...I'm in the US and after Damage and Joy they were close to me, on your tour but never got to see them

  54. J.... O....

    I am here from Chumel (fuck you by the way) *chayotero.

    J.... O....

    what do people post " i am here from " on other generation´s and culture´s videos

  55. N.... f....

    Smh, cant believe they ripped off the rhythm from heyyeahyeahyeah song from he-man..

  56. 1.... ....

    william really hates when jim touches him lol...love these guys coolest band ever ..scotlands finest

    1.... ....

    Yeah..especially when they'd played with their backs to crowds

  57. F.... G....

    1000 summer dreams

  81. S.... S....

    80s the best decade in music and i'm not talking about the glam material but all the indie and alternative rock. Jmc, The Cure, The smiths, New Order, REM, The Replacements, U2 and many other great bands. What a decade!!!! All my friends are into edm and shit and i feel like an outcast. I just can't explain to them how much important guitar solos and song lyrics are. They will never understand but I am glad that I am not like them. I love 80s music and always will.

    S.... S....

    don't worry as long as you understand

    S.... S....

    How much important are they?

    S.... S....

    You've already got it figured out.

    S.... S....

    90s definitely

    S.... S....

    80s forever

  82. C.... B....

    It was meaning Acid 4ain? But i am happy whsn it rains
    I sacrifice myself to you.. Powerful girl.. From the land.. If snaked ... North of Portugal says Hy to dyrty guys bánd dirty bass :)

  83. P.... ....

    hand in hand in a violent life, making love on the edge of a knife. ... pure genius lyrics

  84. M.... C....

    APRIL 1.

    APRIL 23RD I TURN 23

  85. S.... ....

    Its human *nature* to come *together*

    S.... ....

    Sharky Rick Grimes said that

  86. P.... R....

    This is where the term "shoegazers" came from.

  87. V.... C....

    This is one of those songs that I’ve marveled at for 30 plus years. Perfectly crafted

  88. w.... r....

    this video has just helped me to find myself again. Great thanx to JAMC!

  89. T.... ....

    When we were young...

  90. S.... C....

    Best band ever. The coolest of the cool.

  91. R.... T....

    Superb..timeless.

  92. A.... A....

    Io sono fam di Jesus and Mari Chan

  93. t.... ....

    Here we go again. 80s/90s indie classic gets used in a hit tv show/movie/video game and that's all we see in the comments section. Fucking hate it when that happens.

    t.... ....

    some people weren't old enough to know them first time round,at least they're getting an introduction now,same for me with some 60's/70's songs.

  94. M.... D....

    Nostalgia pura!!
    Me acuerdo cuando me peinaba y vestía así, saludos compañeros del CCH Azcapotzalco!! Allá por el lejano 1986......
