CAN'T TAKE MY MELODY
(WORDS & MUSIC BY BRIAN PINCUS & SCOTT LEVINE)
© 2006
VERSE 1:
I’VE BEEN LOVIN’ YOU FOR A LONG TIME NOW
PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK I’M CRAZY (OH YEAH)
‘CAUSE THE LOVIN' THAT YOU’RE GIVIN’ IS THE WRONG KIND NOW
MY HEART IS BREAKIN' EVERYDAY (YEAH)
THIS IS NOT THE WAY I HOPED I’D FEEL
NOW, I’M TRYIN’ TO LEARN JUST HOW TO DEAL WITH YOU
CHORUS:
SHATTER MY HEART
SHATTER MY DREAMS
TAKE ALL MY CASH AND SPEND ALL MY MONEY
BUT YOU CAN’T TAKE MY MELODY
(REPEAT)
VERSE 2:
I'VE BEEN THINKIN' BACK THE WAY YOU LOVE ME DOWN, LIFT ME UP, COULDN'T GET ENOUGH, AND...
I'M FEIN'IN' FOR IT EVERYDAY
SOMEWHERE ON THIS FUNKY, BUMPY RIDE WE ON, YOU WERE GONE, THREW ME FOR A LOOP, AND...
ALL I CAN DO IS PRAY
I KNOW I’VE ONLY GOT MYSELF TO BLAME
I DON'T KNOW WHY I STAYED TO PLAY THE GAME WITH YOU
CHORUS:
SHATTER MY HEART
SHATTER MY DREAMS
TAKE ALL MY CASH AND SPEND ALL MY MONEY
BUT YOU CAN’T TAKE MY MELODY
(REPEAT)
BRIDGE:
‘CAUSE MY SONG IS STRONG
AND IT KEEPS ME MOVING ALONG
INSIDE OF ME
'SPITE WHAT YOU MIGHT SEE
I’M GONNA MAKE IT THROUGH
THERE’S NOTHING ELSE IN THE WORLD THAT I CAN DO
I’ll GET OVER YOU
CHORUS
(REPEAT TO END)
