In the afternoon, baby in my room

When the lights are dim way beyond the hill

In the afternoon, baby in my room

When I'm really down get me off the ground

Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia

In the morning time when I go outside

In the morning time it's like that all the while

In the afternoon when I'm in my room

Every single day, it won't go away

Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia



And it's in my heart, when we're apart

And it stops and starts, and it's in my heart

Every single day it's always in my way

When I'm making hay, all I've got to say

Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia



Well it's in my blood and it's in my veins

Here it comes again, when I'm in the rain

In the wind and rain, well the sun don't shine

Well it's always mine, all of the time

Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia



And it's in my life and it's all the time

It doesn't go away when the church bells chime

In the evening time when I drink my wine

In the evening time when it's on my mind

Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia



It's only melancholia

Oh melancholia, oh melancholia, oh melancholia, oh melancholia

Melancholia, melancholia

They call it, call it melancholia, call it melancholia, call it melancholia, call it melancholia

Call it melancholia, melancholia, melancholia, melancholia
