State of constant confusion!

When we started out
It was like a dream come true
We went together
Like the stars and the moon
I opened her door
Put my jacket over puddles too
And everybody said
There goes April's fool

Well, it wasn't long
'Til we decided to get married
It was like a fairytale
Fulfilling dreams I'd always carried
We had it all worked out
Something borrowed, something blue
Little did I know
I'd end up April's fool

There I was standing
At the altar waiting for her
Sweat running down my brow
Wond'ring if she knew how I adored her
When she never showed
What was I to do?
I walked away with tears in my eyes
Heartbroken, April's fool

There's something 'bout this time of year
That always make me wonder
If she ever looks back
If she even remembers
They say April showers bring May flowers
But they only make me blue
Cause whenever springtime comes around
I'm always April's fool
