April Come She Will

Because of my foot injury I returned to my old hobby: Playing the guitar and singing songs. Here is the last attempt of my favourite Simon and Garfunkel song, 'April Come She Will'. I stumbled a little over some of the words but on the whole I'm quite happy with it.

Come she will

Very nice examples of an inverted word order (i.e. "come she will" instead of "she will come") in one of the most beautiful songs ever written.

"April come she will" by Simon & Garfunkel.




Lyrics:

April come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain
May she will stay
Resting in my arms again

June she'll change her tune
In restless walks she'll prowl the night
July she will fly
And give no warning to her flight

August die she must
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold
September I'll remember
A love once new has now grown old



If you do not feel so romantic, but you are interested in strange word orders (and you are a Star Wars fan like me) try the Yoda-speak generator:)
