I saw a photograph of you and me Standing together by the sea Light on the water so beautiful in the dawn I am looking into your eyes Before the secrets, before the lies Your lips are smiling as though you meant to go on I don't remember the words That you said to me I don't remember the words But the melody Haunts me I found a rose that you gave to me Pressed in a book of your poetry d**hless prose like the love I thought that we shared You left my life with no backward look I crushed the rose and I burned the book I cursed the day that I ever thought you could care
I don't remember the words That you said to me I don't remember the words But the melody Haunts me Melody, melody, melody Melody, melody, melody There's not a day I don't think of you There's not a think that I know to do To keep your memory from invading my heart And though your flowers and books are gone The melody of you lingers on You are a part of my song so what can I do I don't remember the words That you said to me I don't remember the words But the melody Haunts me Melody, melody, melody Melody, melody, melody
