Melanie is sweet
A vision on her feet, so young so fair
A bridge of iron standing tall
Between two parted spheres
She's a novelty of reality
Though she tried so hard, my sweet, darling 
MelanieShe's glad for what she's had
Her mom and several dads so she complained
This modern love affair
With life can really get you down
She's a novelty of reality
But she tried so hard, my sweet, darling 
MelanieOoh, but life goes on
Ooh, the same old song
Ooh, but love's seems such a mystery
So you worked so hard and my sweet, darling 
MelanieOver the horizon
Birds of paradise sit in her eyes
You can feel forever
On her sweet and silken sighs
She's novelty of reality
So she tried so hard and my sweet, darling 
MelanieLa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
