Melt Lyrics

Caught in the eye of a storm
Where we are born
No truth is spoken
Seems so long ago
And you really donít know
How you got broken

Feel me

Give a little bit of love for your people
But save a little bit of love for yourself
Have a little bit of trust in the way you feel
And see your heart melt
Send a little bit of hope down the airwaves
Find a little bit of gold it might help
Youíve got to have a little bit of faith in everything you know
Then let your heart melt

Now is your time to rise
Go on you can fly
I know why you sent me
Feel Me

Send a little bit of hope down the airwaves
Find a little bit of gold it might help
Youíve got to have a little bit of faith in everything you know
Then let your heart feel your heart melt

Never Be The Same Again

Caught in the eye of a storm 
Where we are born 
No truth is spoken 
Seems so long ago 
And you really donít know 
How you got broken

Feel me

Give a little bit of love for your people 
But save a little bit of love for yourself 
Have a little bit of trust in the way you feel 
And see your heart melt 
Send a little bit of hope down the airwaves 
Find a little bit of gold it might help 
Youíve got to have a little bit of faith in everything you know 
Then let your heart melt

Now is your time to rise 
Go on you can fly 
I know why you sent me 
Feel Me

Give a little bit of love for your people 
But save a little bit of love for yourself 
Have a little bit of trust in the way you feel 
And see your heart melt 
Send a little bit of hope down the airwaves 
Find a little bit of gold it might help 
Youíve got to have a little bit of faith in everything you do 
Then watch your heart feel your heart melt

Send a little bit of hope down the airwaves 
Find a little bit of gold it might help 
Youíve got to have a little bit of faith in everything you know 
Then let your heart feel your heart melt

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

"The eye of the storm" is a small peaceful area in the middle of a cyclone where there is no wind, just like that safe haven of our early childhood when we are still unaware of the "storm" raging outside (i. e. we are not told the truth of what the world is really like). But as soon as we tentatively pop our little noses out of this protected area we experience the clash with a harsh reality and its hardships (or atrocities, if you will), and some of us "get broken" in the process. Then again, "broken" might refer to someone who was physically or sexually abused as a child, but this is a risky path of interpretation which I am reluctant to follow right now. Melanie is possibly singing this as a positive message of hope aimed at a fellow musician or a performer (after all, "airwaves" are referenced), maybe even at one of her former bandmates from The Spice Girls who is embarking on a solo career ("Now is your time to rise"). She advises them to establish a balance of giving and taking and, while using the music as a medium of sending hope, to be a little selfish as well and make some money for themselves (at least that's how I understand the "Find a little bit of gold" line). She appeals to them to open their heart and render it "meltable", to break out of the shell and become more susceptible to emotions and build their confidence at the same time. This being only my own take on the song, lines like "I know why you sent me" and "Feel me" remain unclear to me (the former seems almost like a part of a prayer). Still, I just may be closer to the point than smellyspice. This is my favorite song off "Reason", so melancholic and dramatic and hopeful and warm all at once, with a sweeping, anthemic chorus and a wonderful guitar solo to boot.

"Now is your time to rise Go on you can fly I know why you sent me Feel Me"

if Male C is trying to tell us that she wants her man's erection to rise for her then she is not feeling us sorry to say
