Melanie is sweet

A vision on her feet

So young so fair

A bridge of iron

Standing tall between two parted spheres

She's a novelty of reality

Though she tried so hard

My sweet darling Melanie



She's glad for what she's had

Her Mom and several Dads so she complained

This modern love affair

With life can really get you down



She's a novelty of reality

But she tried so hard my sweet darling Melanie



Ooh but life goes on

Ooh the same old song

Ooh but love's in search of mystery

So you worked so hard my sweet darling Melanie



Over the horizon

Birds of paradise sit in her eyes

You can feel forever on her sweet and silken sighs



She's a novelty of reality

So she tried so hard my sweet darling Melanie
