She doesn't have to make it
She's got the sunshine to stay
And long before the afternoon
Her children laugh and play

Without her I'd be nothing
She sends the rain clouds inside
I never see the age I am
There is no changing tide

Melanie blue, always be my girl
Melanie blue, I know you're my girl
Laughing together at something I say
Not knowing whether it's night or it's day

She put me on a tightrope
And I pretended to fall
And when I tried to find myself
She didn't help at all

Melanie blue, always be my girl
Melanie blue, I know you're my girl
Laughing together at something I say

Melanie blue, always be my girl
Melanie blue, I know you're my girl
Laughing together at something I say
Not knowing whether it's night or it's day
