Jody like a melody play inside my head
Till the thought of you is more than I can stand
Just to think of having you is music to my soul
You make me feel as though the world is in my hands

Jody like a melody
You warm me and then leave me with a chill
I can't believe the sun will rise
Without me looking in your eyes
And knowing that your love has made me strong
Why you left I'll never know
The fire you built will always glow
I only know I woke to find you gone

Jody like a melody
You warm me and then leave me with a chill, oh, ooh
Jody, I can't keep my thoughts about me in the daytime
When your memory is enough to make me blind
And late at night I lie awake
And wait for you to come and when you don't
You know I almost lose my mind

Jody like a melody
You warm me and then leave me with a chill

Jody like a melody
Jody like a melody (Jody like a melody)
Jody like a melody (Jody like a melody)
Jody like a melody (Jody like a melody)
Jody like a melody
