Melissa

Oh Melissa I wish I didn't vie for you the way I do 'Cause you'll never love me in the way I want you to But that's fine I blame the fool I am Oh Melissa All these years and you still occupy my mind I wish you'd just stay home and consume all of my time But you can't You need to fly and live your life Oh Melissa Please don't run It took me three years To work up the courage, oh You're ebony and ivory wrapped up in torn blue jeans My tenacity is bad for me, just when I think I should cease I then hear your name And my mind starts to race When I see your face My heart quickens its pace With your ebony silk cascading down your cheeks Tall, ivory frame, and eyes gleaming Gatsby-green You purge me of breath and put my world to rest I've never felt this way And I'm not sure I want that to change
