[00:35.700] |
Love is like a melody |
[00:38.900] |
It haunts my every memory |
[00:43.200] |
The harmony is dissonant despair |
[00:49.800] |
The orchestra is tuning up |
[00:53.300] |
As doors are swung and swiftly shut |
[00:57.200] |
I think about you more than I can bear |
[01:04.500] |
Love is like a minor key |
[01:07.700] |
A jaded weeping willow tree |
[01:11.500] |
It hooks its claws until the blood is drawn |
[01:18.800] |
The audience is spilling out |
[01:22.400] |
I slip into the busy crowd |
[01:25.600] |
But still your face remains after I’m gone |
[01:32.900] |
I could sleep until the summertime |
[01:36.800] |
Maybe then I’d get the peace of mind |
[01:40.300] |
Cut the wires of my telephone line |
[01:47.700] |
But even in the dead of night |
[01:51.200] |
I toss and turn like a little child |
[01:54.720] |
A heavy heart can never be satisfied |
[02:01.600] |
Love is like a melody |
[02:05.100] |
A fever to the remedy |
[02:08.800] |
I see you like a silent movie star |
[02:15.900] |
If you could step out of the screen |
[02:19.200] |
And wake me from this wretched dream |
[02:22.400] |
But I can only watch you from afar |
[02:30.200] |
I could sleep until the summertime |
[02:33.900] |
Maybe then I’d get the peace of mind |
[02:37.700] |
Cut the wires of my telephone line |
[02:44.600] |
But even in the dead of night |
[02:48.300] |
I toss and turn like a little child |
[02:51.800] |
A heavy heart can never be satisfied |
[03:02.900] |
Love is like a melody |
[03:05.800] |
It may ruin me |
[03:09.100] |
A deafening symphony |
[03:12.900] |
That pulls at the seams |
[03:16.700] |
Trapped in the rhapsody |
[03:20.100] |
That plays the wrong notes |
[03:23.800] |
It’s killing me slowly |
[03:27.300] |
So please let me go |
[03:36.900] |
Don’t let me go |
[03:44.100] |
Please let me go |
[03:51.200] |
Don’t let me go |
[03:59.600] |
Love is like a minor key |
[04:03.200] |
The widow in the cemetery |
[04:06.500] |
Whose make-up leaves a trail upon the ground |
[04:13.700] |
I thought I saw our name in lights |
[04:17.250] |
But that was in a former life |
[04:20.910] |
The song I sing is never sung aloud |
[04:28.120] |
And love is just a melody |
[04:31.930] |
And you will never even make a sound |
