Melody For A Memory Daryl Hall & John Oates

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
It's not the best I can give you girl
Take this Melody for a Memory

Can't take me with you
Your half became a part of me
Can't take me with you
Now all I wanna give you girl
Can't take me with you
Take a Melody for a memory
Take part of me, take part of me

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

Can't take me with you
And you'll have to take a part of me
Can't take me with you
Ooohh all I wanna give you girl
Can't take me with you
Take a Melody for a Memory
Take part of me, take part of me
