A melody in the night.
A little girl.
A cry.
So many years have passed.
But my happiness doesn't seem to last.
A melody in the night.
A little girl.
A cry.
Under the blankets I hide again this night.
With all the ghosts lying by my side.
A melody in the night.
A little girl.
A cry.
I cry myself to sleep.
Praying and wishing that you were here with me.
A melody in the night.
A little girl.
A cry.
Memories of an unlived life are coming to my head.
Oh, what I would give to be like you, dead.
A melody in the night.
A little girl.
A cry.
I don't like this place anymore.
I'm tired and I'm scared, I just want to come home.
A melody in the night.
A little girl.
A cry.
Your thought is all I've got left.
Please come and take me, I want this to end.
A melody in the night.
A little girl.
A cry.
And all our moments are passing me by.
Oh please, make them last, just for tonight.
A melody in the night.
A little girl.
A cry.
As sleep takes me, I know find peace.
Cause you are beside me, even though you've never been with me.
