"April Love" is a popular song with music by Sammy Fain and lyrics by Paul Francis Webster. It was written as the theme song for a 1957 film of the same name starring Pat Boone and Shirley Jones and directed by Henry Levin.

Helped by the release of the film, "April Love" became a number-one hit in the United States for Pat Boone, and spent two weeks in the Billboard Hot 100 charts (December 22, 1957 to January 4, 1958). In 1958, it was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Music, Original Song.[1] Connie Francis and Billy Vaughn also made a cover version of this song.
