Love Is a Minor Key

Love is like a melody

It haunts my every memory

The harmony is discern under spell

The orchestra is tuning up

As doors are swung and swiftly shut

I think about you more than I can bear

Love is like a minor key

That changes weeping willow tree

It hugs its claws until the blood is drawn

The audience is spitting out

A slip into the busy crowd

But still your face remains after I’m gone

I could sleep until the summer time

Maybe then I’d get the peace of mind

Cut the wires of my telephone line

But even in the dead of night

I toss and turn like a little child

A heavy heart can never be satisfied

Love is like a melody

A fever to the remedy

I see you like a silent movie star

If you could step out of the screen

Wake me from this wretched dream

But I can only watch you from afar

I could sleep until the summer time

Maybe then I’d get the peace of mind

Cut the wires of my telephone line

But even in the dead of night

I toss and turn like a little child

A heavy heart can never be satisfied

Love is like a melody

It may ruin me

A deafening symphony

Who pulls out the scenes

Trapped in the rhapsody

The players of our notes

It’s killing me slowly

So please let me go

Don’t let me go

Please let me go

But don’t let me go

Love is like a minor key

The widow in the cemetery

This may come leaves a trail upon the ground

I thought I saw our name in the lights

But that was in a former life

The song that I sing is never sung aloud

And love is just a melody

And you will never even make a sound
