LYRICS

(April fools, April fools, April fools, April fools...
April fools, April fools, April fools, April fools...)
In an April dream, once you came to me
You smiled, I looked into your eyes, and I knew I'd be loving you, and
Then you touched my hand, and I knew April dreams could come true

Are we just April fools, who can't see all the danger around us?
Are we just April fools? I don't care, true love has found us now
(April fool, true love's found us now...)
Woo! Yes, it has!
(April fool, true love's found us now...)
Uh-huh

Little did we know where the road would lead;
Here we are, a million miles away from the past, traveling so fast, and
There is no turning back if our sweet April dream doesn't last

Are we just April fools, who can't see all the danger around us?
Are we just April fools? I don't care, true love has found us now
(April fool, true love's found us now...)
Woo! Yes, it has!
(April fool, true love's found us now...)
Uh-huh

Little did we know where the road would lead;
Here we are, a million miles away from the past, traveling so fast, and
There is no turning back if our sweet April dream doesn't last

Are we just April fools, who can't see all the danger around us?
Are we just April fools? I don't care, true love has found us now
(April fool, true love's found us now...)
Woo! Yes, it has!
(April fool, true love's found us now...)
Uh-huh

Are we just April fools, who can't see all the danger around us?
Are we just April fools? I don't care, true love has found us now
(April fool, true love's found us now...)
Woo! Yes, it has!
(April fool, true love's found us now...)
Uh-huh
