The Mood in the Melody Lyrics by 神保彰 (Akira Jimbo)

Cotton

1986

[Verse 1]
There's a mood in the melody
Of a song that I knew back when you were mine
There's a mood in the melody
And it's tugging away at my heart
There's a mood in the melody
And it's haunting me just like the wind at night
There's a mood in the melody
That I hear when I turn out the light
[Chorus]
All those lazy summer days
And crazy youthful ways
Playin' at the Jersey shore
Everyday just bakin' in the sun
And gettin' overdone
Waitin' for a baseball score
[Post-Chorus]
Therе's a mood in the melody
But I don't evеn know how the lyrics go
There's a mood in the melody
That reminds me of days we both knew
Days we both knew
[Piano Solo]
[Saxophone Solo]
[Chorus]
Lazy summer days
And crazy youthful ways
Playin' at the Jersey shore
Everyday just bakin' in the sun
And gettin' overdone
Waitin' for a baseball score
[Post-Chorus]
There's a mood in the melody
But I don't even know how the lyrics go
There's a mood in the melody
[Outro]
We were fools to have let it all go
But how could we know?
How could we know?
How could we know?
How could we know?
Such fools
