Melodies & Desires Lyrics

Follow these instructions
Do exactly as I do
Lean your shoulders forward
Let your hands slide over to my side
Move your body closer
Let your heart meet mine

Love is the harmony
Desire is the key
Love is the melody
Now sing it with me

Come a little closer
Take a look at me
This light is so obvious
I want you to see
Come a little closer
Look me in the eye
Then repeat with me one more time

Love is the harmony
Desire is the key
Love is a symphony
Now play it with me

Love is the harmony
Desire is the key
Love is a symphony
Now play it with me

You'll be the rythm and I'll be the beat
You'll be the rythm and I'll be the beat
Then I'll be the rythm and you'll be the beat
And love, the shoreline, where you and I meet

Love is the harmony
Desire is the key
Love is a symphony
Come sing some with me

"Come a little closer Take a look at me <b>This light is so obvious I want you to see<b> Come a little closer Look me in the eye Then repeat with me one more time" i love that bolded part, to me, is like she wants him to kiss her since he already hug her, but he doesnt know, so thats why she's saying "this light is obvious,i want you to see" like "its obvious that i wanna kiss you, i want you to notice" you know...

You'll be the rhythm and I'll be the beat Then I'll be the rhythm and you'll be the beat And love, the shoreline, where you and I meet

such imagery here... what a perfect little song about the give and take of love.

absolutely love this track. probably my favorite of hers altogether.

This song is obviously about sex, but I see it as more of a passion, a clashing of souls into a beautiful harmony. It's lovely.

My Interpretation

@cryinglovers I see why you could interpret it as about sex but it could also be interpreted as about some psychedelic trip.
