lyrics

Sweet Melinda's got a tough tough life
Never time to just play
Not content to be someone's wife
Had to go her own way
Took the kid and got a small small place
Just enough to get by
Every morning it's the same old race
Late at night, she'll just cry

Come on baby wanna take your hand
Come on baby so fine
Come on baby wanna take your hand
Come on baby let's shine!

Sweet Melinda's gettin' up at six
Looks around, it's so gray
Every morning like a ton of bricks
Just another long day
Makes the coffee and it gets too cool
TV news in the dawn
Locks the door and takes the kid to school
Why's the passion all gone

Chorus

All I know is that she's been my friend
Seen my ups and my downs
Helped me through it when I hit the end
Picked me off the cold ground
Never been around a heart so right
Wide and deep as the sea
All I dream of in the dark dark night
Her, the starlight, and me

Chorus
