I'll Take a Melody
I've seen the rain pourin' down
The sky was grey with a speck of blue there
Peeked through a hole in the clouds
The sun was screaming hey you there
As you ramble through your sorrows
As if everything is wrong
I'm livin' in (a) yesterdays tomorrow
I know something's helping me 'long
I'll take a melody
And see what I can do about it
I'll take a simple
D to E and feel brand new about it
I understand why
The old fishermen sail alone
Sail alone, sail alone
'Cause some day you'll be gone
I've heard you talkin' 'bout your troubles
Well, everybody's got their troubles too
You can make them burst like bubbles
If you know just what to do
I've been called a dreamer dreams
That never will come true
Well, I've been called so many things before
I tell you what I'm gonna do
I'll take a melody
And see what I can do about it
I'll take a simple
D to E and feel brand new about it
I understand why
The old fishermen sail alone
Sail alone, sail alone
'Cause some day you'll be gone
I'll take a melody
And see what I can do about it
I'll take a sing
On sing, on sing a song along
What I can do about it
Doh ray me fah soh la tea
Listen to my melody
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
What I can do about it, ooh.
The sky was grey with a speck of blue there
Peeked through a hole in the clouds
The sun was screaming hey you there
As you ramble through your sorrows
As if everything is wrong
I'm livin' in (a) yesterdays tomorrow
I know something's helping me 'long
I'll take a melody
And see what I can do about it
I'll take a simple
D to E and feel brand new about it
I understand why
The old fishermen sail alone
Sail alone, sail alone
'Cause some day you'll be gone
I've heard you talkin' 'bout your troubles
Well, everybody's got their troubles too
You can make them burst like bubbles
If you know just what to do
I've been called a dreamer dreams
That never will come true
Well, I've been called so many things before
I tell you what I'm gonna do
I'll take a melody
And see what I can do about it
I'll take a simple
D to E and feel brand new about it
I understand why
The old fishermen sail alone
Sail alone, sail alone
'Cause some day you'll be gone
I'll take a melody
And see what I can do about it
I'll take a sing
On sing, on sing a song along
What I can do about it
Doh ray me fah soh la tea
Listen to my melody
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
What I can do about it, ooh.
