Melody Maker Lyrics by The Kooks

Down - Single

2014

VERSE 1:
Melody Maker, why did she
Take my heart up to the skies
Only to break me
The world it
It keeps spinning
But I'm
I'm not with it
I'm all alone
Well, Melody Maker
Will you
Send me a line, or make me
Some of your time so that I can see
A land with these broken wings

CHORUS:
And if you need me
Remember not to call
Did you deceive me
With your back against the wall
And do you believe me
All I have is love
Why did you deceive me? Ha!
Just, another brick in the wall

VERSE 2:
Too young to remember and
Too hard to forget you know I live my life
On the end of your cigarette
The past is gone
But let's not forget you had me caught
Down the sky before you let me in
You never really let me in

CHORUS:
So next time you need me
Remember not to call
And did you deceive me
With your back against the wall
And do you believe me
All I have is love for you
Why did you deceive me? Ha!
Just, another brick in the wall
