Give Me a Song With a Beautiful Melody Songtext
von Sarah Vaughan

Give me a song with a beautiful melody
Play it with strings ′til it sings in my memory

The simplest kind of a strain
Is bound to remain in your heart
If it takes you way back to the past
It's the kind of a song that will last


And if the words to the tune seen to say what you′re thinking of
Just sing the words to the girl and she'll fall in love
And when you're holding her tight
You′ll find that I′m right as can be
She'll be glad that you fell to a beautiful melody

The simplest kind of a strain
Is bound to remain in your heart
If it takes you way back to the past
It′s the kind of a song that will last


And if the words to the tune seen to say what you're thinking of
Just sing the words to the girl and she′ll fall in love
And when you're holding her tight
You′ll find that I'm right as can be
She'll be glad that you fell if the music is well
She′ll be happy to swing to a wonderful tune
She′ll be glad that you fell to a beautiful melody
