INTERRUPTED MELODY
Copyrights Registered


The lights come up, the show is over
The theater empties as the credits roll by
This house is cold, the song is fading
I sit alone as curtains close on this heart of mine
And I wonder how it all came down
To the famous final scene
How we lost the thread that held us
Spellbound in a dream

Chorus

Now the stage is dark and the theaters cold and lonely
The music fades like an INTERRUPTED MELODY
We wrote the score now I hear the words 'if only'
Hangin' in the air like an INTERRUPTED MELODY

The world began, my life found meaning
The very moment when I saw your face
All traffic stopped, I held you breathless
I melted into you and lost all sense of time and space
Now I could've sworn forever's touch
Had surely lent a glove
In conducting our life's symphony
The melody of love

Repeat chorus - Bridge

Oh - I've been searching for the reason
Tell me - why - are we strangers to the song
Oh - could we go we go back to the season
When we walked this earth together
Two against the storm
