My Melody
Karl Martindahl Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have a feeling,
a feeling of goodbye.
You don't have to say it
I see it in your eyes

ref.
If you were the sky
Then I was the sea
And you were the verse
In my melody

I ask how you feel
you tell me nothings changed
But when I try to hold you
I feel a love real strange

If you were the sun
Then I was the moon
And you were a song
And I was the tune

If you were a bird
Then I was a bee
And you were the verse
In my melody

If you were the sun
Then I was the moon
And you were a song
And I was the tune

If you were the sky
Then I was the sea
And you were the verse




In my melody
In my melody
