Bring Back The Melody

Bringing back the beauty of the melody

Bring back the melody

 

Bring back that lovely music

That I listened to before

When songs had lovely melodies

That seeped into my core

When I could lift my voice and sing

To heaven up above

With Peter, Paul and Mary

Their music I did love.

 

I remember when a kid

When the great E came along

He always sang those melodies

Those pretty kind of songs

With that lovely voice of his

That sent chills down my spine

And every song had a lovely tune

That made me feel so fine

 

Now all we get is walls of noise

And lots and lots of chords

The kids, they call it music

They think they’ve got us fooled

But it all goes round in circles

One day I’ll hear again

Those lovely songs with melody

That eased my childhood pain.
