A Lovely Melody

All I need is a lovely melody.

A simple tune that plays for me and you.

A soft and harmonizing, and completely tantalizing,

Beat that plays on and on, past the break of dawn.

 

All I desire is a song filled with fire,

Passion pouring in each note, joy singing in each quote.

A lifelong friend, an instrumental promise to never end.

All I need is a lovely melody.

 

Without music coursing through my ears,

There is no comfort to all my fears.

There’s an awful silence ringing about my head,

Full of unspoken words that should never be said.

 

Without music dancing in my heart,

Alone on an island, I’ll feel I’m breaking apart,

Into little tiny pieces that will never mend,

I’ll need my trusted ally, my instrumental friend.

 

All I need is a lovely melody.

A simple tune that plays for me and maybe you.

A soft and unifying song that sounds mystifying.

A treacherous beat that plays quite sweet.

 

All I want is a song that haunts,

My ears for eternity, my heart for infinity.

All I need is a pretty melody,

A lifelong friend, an instrumental promise to never end.
