英语歌曲:Sweet Is the Melody

Sweet Is the Melody

Sweet is the melody, so hard to come by
It’s so hard to make every note bend just right
You lay down the hours and leave not one trace
but a tune¹ for the dancing is there in its place
The dance floor’s for gliding²
not jumping over ponies³
where boots and gold bracelets⁴ come and meet as they should
It’s for celebrating a Friday night romance
forgetting the bad stuff and just feeling good
Sweet is the melody, so hard to come by
It’s so hard to make every note bend just right
You lay down the hours and leave not one trace
but a tune for the dancing is there in its place
An arm’s just an arm
‘til it’s wrapped ‘round a shoulder
looped side by side
they go stepping out together
A note’s just a note
‘til you wake from your slumber⁵
and dare to discover the new melody
Sweet is the melody, so hard to come by
It’s so hard to make every note bend just right
You lay down the hours and leave not one trace
but a tune for the dancing is there in its place
Sweet is the melody, so hard to come by
It’s so hard to make every note bend just right
You lay down the hours and leave not one trace
but a tune for the dancing is there in its place
