Nat “King” Cole - Lost April Lyrics | gotlyric.com

Songwriter: Eddie DeLange Emil Newman Hubert Spencer

Lost April
Where did you go?
Like winter's snow
I saw you vanish
Lost April
So soft and warm
A memory
Not even time can banish

Lost April
That taught me this
A single kiss
Could lead to heaven
But April had numbered days
So when they passed
Love couldn't last
I lost love and you
And April, too

~interlude~

So when they passed
Love couldn't last
I lost love and you
And April, too

Nat “King” Cole

Nathaniel Adams Coles (17 March 1919 – 15 February 1965) was born in Montgomery, Alabama and used the stage name Nat “King” Cole throughout his career as a jazz pianist and later as a singer.

Cole’s first mainstream hit was “Straighten Up and Fly Right” in 1943. Bo Diddley, who performed similar folk-based material said that song was a big influence on him.

In the late 40s, Cole began recording more pop-oriented material. His stature as a pop singer was cemented by hits like “Route 66”, “Mona Lisa” and “Unforgettable”. In the 50s, virtually every home had a copy of his Christmas album.
