In a world where April showers bring May flowers, Prince flips the script and delivers snowflakes instead. "Sometimes It Snows In April" is a melancholic serenade to lost friends and the cruel joke of unexpected grief. With Tracy's departure in the rearview, Prince contemplates the icy unpredictability of life and love. The song waltzes through memories like a springtime stroll that somehow got caught in winter—reminding us that even at times when renewal should triumph, frost can still bite. Ultimately, it’s an ode to the harsh truth that all good things (and apparently weather patterns) have their own schedule. So grab your coat and a box of tissues; this tune is as unpredictably bittersweet as a snow cone in spring.
Sometimes It Snows In April
Lyrics
Ah
Ah
Ah
Oh, oh
Do
Um da da, ah
Tracy died soon after a long fought civil war
Just after I'd wiped away his last tear
I guess he's better off than he was before
A whole lot better off than the fools he left here
I used to cry for Tracy 'cause he was my only friend
Those kind of cars don't pass you every day
I used to cry for Tracy 'cause I wanted to see him again
But sometimes, sometimes life ain't always the way
Sometimes it snows in April
Sometimes I feel so bad, so bad
Sometimes I wish life was never ending
And all good things, they say, never last
Springtime was always my favorite time of year
A time for lovers holding hands in the rain
Now springtime only reminds me of Tracy's tears
Always cry for love, never cry for pain
He used to say so strong, oh unafraid to die
Unafraid of the death that left me hypnotized
No, staring at his picture I realized
No one could cry the way my Tracy cried
Sometimes it snows in April
Sometimes I feel so bad
Sometimes, sometimes I wish that life was never ending
And all good things, they say, never last
I often dream of heaven and I know that Tracy's there
I know that he has found another friend
Maybe he's found the answer to all the April snow
Maybe one day I'll see my Tracy again
Sometimes it snows in April
Sometimes I feel so bad, so bad
Sometimes I wish that life was never ending
But all good things, they say, never last
All good things they say, never last
And love, it isn't love until it's past
