Lyrics
Melodie d’amour, take this song to my lover Shoo shoo little bird, go and find my love Melodie d’amour, serenade at her window Shoo shoo little bird, sing my song of love
Oh tell her I will wait, if she names a date Tell her that I care, more than I can bear For when we are apart, how it hurts my heart So fly oh fly away and say that I hope and pray This lovers melody will bring her back to me
Melodie d’amour, take this song to my lover Shoo shoo little bird, go and find my love. Melodie d’amour, serenade at her window shoo shoo little bird, tell her of my love
Oh tell her how I yearn, long for her return Say I miss her so, more than she could know For when we are apart, how it hurts my heart So fly oh fly away and say that I hope and pray This lover’s melody will bring her back to me
Melodie d’amour, serenade at her window Shoo shoo little bird, tell her of my love.
