Melissa

Lyrics

Melissa, I knew I just had to kiss ya Heaven knows what I had in mind When my eyes went blind And you had to take me home Because I could not find my way Mimi, you make my glasses steamy Heaven knows that I'll take a chance On a girl from France Just so long as we don't have to dance 'till dawn Maybe baby I'm not so smart But I know I'm not your brother And the way you affect me You needn't suspect me Of falling in love with another Daisy, your old man thinks I'm crazy Heaven knows I used to go insane When I heard your name I knew what I was doin' When I had my brain removed Maybe baby I'm not so smart I never claimed to be a thinker But you gotta respect me Cause the way you affect me I'll never have to be a drinker Bessie, my dreams of you are messy Heaven knows I used to lie awake And try to make my heart stop pounding Long enough to take my rest
