#VERSE
Melody Sunday was her name
The prettiest girl I’d ever seen
And so, I wrote this song for her
My Sunday Melody
#VERSE
We met at youth fellowship
Singing songs of praise
The soothing sounds that passed her lips
Stuck with me for days
#CHORUS
Hallelujah, hear her voice
Like the angels sing
Deep in love, I had no choice
And so, I bought this ring
#VERSE
In my pocket, there it stayed
For more than one whole year
Waiting till the time was right
But then Melody disappeared
#BRIDGE
Rumors spread that she had eloped
With some guy from our school
Then she called me, smashing all my hopes
Said she’d had a baby girl, too
#INSTRUMENTAL
#CHORUS
How’d I do the stupid thing
Of holding out too long
Should have given her that ring
Now all I’ve got is this stupid song
#VERSE
Melody Sunday was her name
My saddest memory
Now I cry each weekend and sing alone
My Sunday melody
My Sunday melody
My Sunday melo... melody
