lyrics

it's been a year
since she last risked her precious life
and gotten on the plane to fly
across the continent up high
above the plains
it's July and he'll be seeing her again

the minutes tick
and he can't see her in the thick
of all the crowds around he's sick with worry
that she won't be quick to hurry
off the plane
plus he's actually sick and feeling faint

ooh ooh ooh ooh
he wants to hold her
ooh ooh ooh ooh
and lay on her shoulder
ooh ooh ooh ooh
but she won't let him
cuz she can't afford to catch his melancholy melody

melancholy melody
melancholy melody

and then he sees her
and he wants to run and squeeze her
but he knows it wouldn't please her
she's afraid of his disease
for all its strife
but fears like these keep her from living life

ooh ooh ooh ooh
he wants to hold her
ooh ooh ooh ooh
and lay on her shoulder
ooh ooh ooh ooh
but she won't let him
cuz she can't afford to catch his melancholy melody

melancholy melody
melancholy melody

melancholy melody
melancholy melody
melancholy melody
