Songtext Strange melody Jane Birkin

Strange melody

As she lay beside the young man, for a moment /
She'd forgotten, who she'd become /
And paths he dreamed to follow, reminded her
Of sorrows, once had won /
And all the words he told her /
The colours how they showed her /
All that she'd lost /
And everyday the same day /
Revolving in the same way /
How it broke her heart /
But no one else can hear /
No one else can save her now /
So quietly, life's strange melody /
Won't be heard /
She walks into the water /
With tired linen shawl, oh
I wonder why /
And as the waves unfolding /
Like the voices never knowing /
Inside her head /
But as her thoughts surround her /
Like the ocean tide around her /
Why will they say /
But everyone is lonely /
And inside if only /
So silently /
But no one else can hear /
No one else can save her now /
So quietly, life's strange melody /
Won't be heard /
But no one else can hear /
No one else can save her now /
So quietly, life's strange melody /
Won't be heard /
But no one else can hear /
No one else can save her now /
So quietly, life's strange melody /
Won't be heard
