The Melody In My Heart

The Melody in My Heart
Written by J. W. M. Earnings
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x6
There is something different in my heart
There is something missing from the start
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
The melody in my heart, kept concealed…
Believe or not, I have been healed…
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Trust turns to dust as my heart begins to rust
This heart full of veins and arteries are gonna bust
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2

Drenched in silence 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in noise…
Come on and rejoice 
You can do it if you put your mind to it
I don’t want to admit it…I don’t fit…
I don’t fit…I don’t fit in…
Where have you been? 
Where have you been?
Where have you been? 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in silence 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in noise…
Come on and rejoice 
You can do it if you put your mind to it
I don’t want to admit it…I don’t fit…
I don’t fit…I don’t fit in…

Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
There is something different in my heart
There is something missing from the start
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
The melody in my heart, kept concealed…
Believe or not, I have been healed…
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Trust turns to dust as my heart begins to rust
This heart full of veins and arteries are gonna bust
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Something is in the atmosphere…
Something called Wretched Fear…
Nobody knows me at all…at all…
I guess I will try and try and try to stand tall…
Just answer my call…my melody…an entrancing tale from the heart…
I’m mesmerized by your might
I memorized the Word of God…a glorious, gracious light…

Drenched in silence 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in noise…
Come on and rejoice 
You can do it if you put your mind to it
I don’t want to admit it…I don’t fit…
I don’t fit…I don’t fit in…
Where have you been? 
Where have you been?
Where have you been? 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in silence 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in noise…
Come on and rejoice 
You can do it if you put your mind to it
I don’t want to admit it…I don’t fit…
I don’t fit…I don’t fit in…

Hm, someone is thinking of me…
I can feel it under my skin
Hm, someone out there is willing to be set free
Like me…like me…where have you gone? Don’t flee from my grasp…I gasp…I make wounds in my heart…it’s bleeding with regret, but it’s an emotional piece of ART
It’s bleeding out regret…I’m awfully upset…
Cry me a river and deliver me from bondage…
Cry me a lake and don’t put my life at stake…
Give me a break…for Goodness Sake…

Drenched in silence 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in noise…
Come on and rejoice 
You can do it if you put your mind to it
I don’t want to admit it…I don’t fit…
I don’t fit…I don’t fit in…
Where have you been? 
Where have you been?
Where have you been? 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in silence 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in noise…
Come on and rejoice 
You can do it if you put your mind to it
I don’t want to admit it…I don’t fit…
I don’t fit…I don’t fit in…
You can do it if you put your mind to it
I don’t want to admit it…I don’t fit…
I don’t fit…I don’t fit in…
I can move on and go forward…
But, darling, wait up! Hold your horses!
Please don’t go backward…
Words, like birds, release…
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in silence 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Give…us…peace…
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Drenched in silence 
Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x2
Give…us…not…chaos…
The ocean below us 
Is like the sky…sky…sky…
We’re on the same bus
Don’t pass me by…by…
I wanna fly with the flock today
But, tonight, I won’t be doused in dismay
Doused in dismay
Doused in…di-i-i-ismay…
 Hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm…hm….x6
I didn't mean to do you harm x3,
But you're not my kind
