Sweet melancholy, you've come back again
Dropped me a line as I lay down so gentle in bed
Alone with the thoughts in my head
Sweet melancholy, how long does it last
I look to the skies and I notice how quickly clouds pass
Oh they pass
And I don't got nothing but time on my hands
I don't got nothing but time
I don't got nothing but time on my hands
I'll give some to you if you like
If you like
Sweet melancholy, you come in disguise
You come as a lover brand new, who took dark from the night
Took black from the night
Sweet melancholy, am I ever enough
Tell me the truth am I really deserving of love
Of your love
And I don't got nothing but time on my hands
I don't got nothing but time
I don't got nothing but time on my hands
I'll give some to you if you like
If you like
Sweet melancholy, will you always remain
You are the peaks and the valleys in some old mountain range
The wind blowing through me, you're cold cold rain
The last time she turns as she's walking away
As she's walking away
And I don't got nothing but time on my hands
I don't got nothing but time
I don't got nothing but time on my hands
I'll give some to you I just might
Oh if you like
