Melinda lyrics

Melinda: Daddy, daddy, come and look and see what I have found

A little way away from here while digging in the ground.

Dad: Come away Melinda. Come in and close the door.

It's nothing but a picture book, they had before the war.

Mel: Daddy, daddy, come and see, oh daddy come and look.

There's four or five Melinda girls inside this picture book.

Dad: Come away Melinda.Come in and close the door.

There were lots of little girls like you, before they had the war.

Mel: Daddy, daddy, come and see, oh Daddy, hurry, do.

There's someone in a pearly dress, who's all grown-up like you.

Dad: Come away Melinda. Come in and close the door.

That someone is a mother like you had, before the war.

Mel: Daddy, daddy, come and see, such things I've never seen.

Happy places all around and all the ground is green.

Dad: Come away Melinda.Come in and close the door.

That's just the way it used to be before they had the war.

Mel: Daddy, daddy, come and see, and tell me if you can

Why can't it be the way it was before the war began.

Dad: Come away Melinda. Come in and close the door.

The answer lies in yesterday, before they had the war.
