Sweet is the melody so hard to come by

It ' s so hard to make every note bend just right

You lay down the hours and leave not one trace

But a tune for the dancing is there in its place

The dance floor ' s for gliding

Not jumping over ponies

Where boots and gold bracelets come and meet as they should

It ' s for celebrating a Friday night romance

Forgetting the bad stuff and just feeling good

Sweet is the melody so hard to come by

It ' s so hard to make every note bend just right

You lay down the hours and leave not one trace

But a tune for the dancing is there in its place

An arm ' s just an arm

' til it ' s wrapped ' round a shoulder

Looped side by side

They go stepping out together

A note ' s just a note

' til you wake from your slumber

And dare to discover the new melody

Sweet is the melody so hard to come by

It ' s so hard to make every note bend just right

You lay down the hours and leave not one trace

But a tune for the dancing is there in its place

Sweet is the melody so hard to come by

It ' s so hard to make every note bend just right

You lay down the hours and leave not one trace

But a tune for the dancing is there in its place
