She really turned me over
Made to feel completely by surprise
I have found the love I've been needin' all my life
And it's all right there in Melanie's eyes
Listen to me

But she's been hurt before, so she's cool to me
Until my poor hearts pray that it seems
Though I've only known her for a few days
I've loved that girl forever in my dreams

Though it makes me wonder (wonder)
Should I show my love or hold it under? (under)
I might spoil my chance of making her love me
Melanie

Well, I know I made many mistakes before
And I'm so tired of ninety-five percent love
So I'm treating the situation carefully
I'm taking steps to attract your love

And though it makes me wonder (wonder)
Should I show my love or hold it under? (under)
I might spoil my chance of making her love me
Melanie

Though it makes me wonder (wonder)
Should I show my love or hold it under? Oh, yeah
I might spoil my chance of making her love me
Melanie

Oh Melanie, Melanie
Oh, yeah yeah
Though it makes me wonder (wonder)
Should I show my love or hold it under? Oh, yeah
I might spoil my chance of making her love me
Melanie
