[VERSE 1]
Melanie, where did you go?
Into the night where snows?
For your and the holes in your heart
The wine and the whiskey they flow
Down the skin of your breast
And all the way on to your toes
You'll kiss it and call it your love
You'll carry it down to the coast
And wash it in waters so warm
And rattle your sweet baby bones
Melanie, where did you run?
Into the black summer sun?
And you clinch your teeth in the dark
Where stagelights forget to shine
For the sake of those sparks
That burst into colors and shine
You'll kiss it and call it your light
You'll bury it under your bed
And wrap it in covers so bright
And rattle your sweet baby head
[CHORUS]
Where will you run?
Where will you run?
Where will you run?
[VERSE 2]
Melanie, where did you go?
Into the night where it snows?
So white and cold, and you know
Your flower's beginning to die
Turn grey from gold
And falling down slow through the sky
You'll kiss it and call it your life
You'll follow her down to the ground
And wrap it in color so bright
And make all your beautiful-
[CHORUS]
