One for the money
One song I'm writing for you
And if you can't take me with you girl
Take this Melody for a Memory

Love in the morning
Love in the late afternoon
There'll be no words when I leave you girl
Just a Melody for a Memory

And if you can't take me with you
Take this Melody for a Memory

She cried when he left her
Her eyes went black with the blue
The infrequent letters
The sooner the better
The cold distant phone calls
Will have to do

And if you can't take me with you
Take this Melody for a Memory

Take part of me, take part of me
Take this Melody for a Memory
