My One And Only Thrill
Melody Gardot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
When does May envelop spring
But it don't matter
But it don't matter, 'cause
When I'm with you
My whole world stands still
Ships may never leave the dock
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
Ticks may never hear a tock
But it don't matter
But it don't matter, 'cause
When I'm with you
My whole world stands still
You're my one and only thrill
Shores may never reach the tide
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
Buds may never open wide
But it don't matter
But it don't matter, 'cause
When I'm with you
My whole world stands still
You're my one and only thrill
You're my
You're my
You're my one and only
Thrill
The lyrics of Melody Gardot's song, My One And Only Thrill, express an unconditional love that is not dependent on the ebb and flow of the natural world. The opening lines, "Birds may cease to spread their wings/But it don't matter," suggest that even if the world were to come to an end, the love that the singer feels for the person addressed in the song is so intense, it surpasses the physical world or any natural forces. The lyrics repeat the phrase "But it don't matter" throughout the song, imbuing the lyrics with a sense of resilience and steadfastness that highlights the strength of the connection between the two people.
The chorus, "When I'm with you/My whole world stands still/You're my one and only thrill," encapsulates the passion felt by the singer. The lyrics suggest that their love is a force that suspends time and space, and nothing else matters as long as this connection is intact. The imagery used throughout the song, such as the "Ships may never leave the dock," and "Buds may never open wide," shows how the singer's love is not dependent on external forces, making it all-encompassing.

Birds may cease to spread their wings
Even if birds stop flying
But it don't matter
It's not important
But it don't matter
It's not important
When does May envelop spring
When May arrives and brings the spring season
But it don't matter
It's not important
But it don't matter, 'cause
It's not important because
When I'm with you
When I'm in your company
My whole world stands still
Everything around me becomes calm and serene
You're my one and only thrill
You're the only thing that excites and thrills me

Once upon a beautiful memory Melody
I gave you a lovely rose by the sea near a stream.
Like a photograph in a dream,
Its flawless beauty was timeless
and frozen like a silent scream.
A token of pure beauty to honor you
on any given special day.
A rose of glass that
will never wilt or go away.
I feel your kind tender heart in this distress
to suppress the foul stench of ugliness,
which others are very careless and thoughtless has given out.
Only a fragile glass rose can honor you as a token
of beauty and friendship which can never be broken.
I am here with my glass rose honoring you in my
dreams of beauty as I have humbly spoken,
after looking into you're wonderful eyes and
seeing you're divine smile without cries.
My rose is made from fragile glass it will never die or be broken
it lives on within your divine majestic beauty and it's not a token.
Your beauty glows towards the heavens as a guiding light a beacon of loveliness for all eternity at first sight without any lessons, carelessness, and thoughtlessness.
You are magnificently filled with bliss.
Suddenly I get this feeling deep within my soul, my mind draws a blank, and my heart sank into my hands slightly shaking as my soul begins racing and quaking. I feel like I'm losing control of sorrow
I'm nervous inside and out about losing another morrow.
I have an unexplainable feeling its as big as Kilimanjaro,
I wish I could figure this out when I see your divine beauty without a doubt, you are so lovely as yarrow and songs of sparrows.
These Monarchs Butterflies waiting on roses in every row trying to borrow every bit of tomorrow like the great pharaohs Nefertiti or Ramesses and humble me hoping to see your majestic beauty.
