Sweet is the melodyso hard to come byIt s so hard to make every note bend just rightYou lay down the hours and leave not one tracebut a tune for the dancing is there in it s placeThe dance floor s for gliding and not jumping over ponieswhere boots and gold bracelets come and meet as they shouldIt s for celebrating a Friday night romanceforgetting the bad stuff and just feeling goodSweet is the melodyso hard to come byIt s so hard to make every note bend just rightYou lay down the hours and leave not one tracebut a tune for the dancing is there in it s placeAn arm s just an arm til it s wrapped round a shoulderlooped side by side they go stepping out togetherA note s just a note til you wake from your slumberand dare to discover the new melodySweet is the melodyso hard to come byIt s so hard to make every note bend just rightYou lay down the hours and leave not one tracebut a tune for the dancing is there in it s place
