Melodie
Supremes · Magnificent The Complete Studio Duets [2009]
Knowing I was lost in the past somewhere
I felt my destiny
What a sad parade going nowhere
Then I saw my sweet melody
Like a song you enchanted me
And the sound of your voice
Made my heart keep time
To the music of the love that fills my mind
Melodie, you're a symphony
A love song to me
You're my only
Melodie, you're my everything
Make me wanna sing
For you only
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Melodie, you're a symphony
A love song to me
You're my only
Melodie, you're my everything
Make me wanna sing
For you only
The long and winding road
Is much shorter now that you're here with me
The questions in my mind
Have been answered now love has told me
All the colors are brighter now
And the darkness is lighter now
In my mind I can hear
The band start to play
Hello tomorrow
Goodbye yesterday
Melodie, you're my symphony
A love song to me
You're my only
Melodie, you're my everything
Make me wanna sing
For you only
Beautiful morning
Oh happy day
And you know it's music to my ears
Every word that you say
Melodie, you're a symphony
A love song to me
You're my only
Melodie, you're my everything
Make me wanna sing
For you only
(Fade out)
