Melissa

She’s the first one to call when the sky turns gray

She'd give you the shirt off her back, chase the trouble away

Sweetest soul that I know, with a heart made of gold

A friendship like this never ever grows old

We can hang at the house, we can waste a whole day

Doing nothing at all, and I love it that way

Oh, Melissa, you’re the best friend I’ve got

From the quiet afternoons to the days that demand a lot

I just want you to know, I just want you to see

How much your sweet spirit means to me

I love you with all of my heart, it’s true

I’m a lucky soul just to walk beside you

Friday night at the racetrack, hearing engines roar

Cheering loud in the stands till our voices are sore

Then it’s lines in the water when the weekend rolls around

Waiting on a bite where the river slows down

Whether casting a reel or just catching a breeze

Every moment with you puts my mind right at ease

Oh, Melissa, you’re the best friend I’ve got

From the quiet afternoons to the days that demand a lot

I just want you to know, I just want you to see

How much your sweet spirit means to me

I love you with all of my heart, it’s true

I’m a lucky soul just to walk beside you

You would do anything for a friend in a bind

That kind of loving nature is so hard to find

So I’m singing this song just to make sure it's clear

I appreciate you more and more every year

Oh, Melissa, you’re the best friend I’ve got

From the quiet afternoons to the days that demand a lot

I just want you to know, I just want you to see

How much your sweet spirit means to me

I love you with all of my heart, it’s true

I’m a lucky soul just to walk beside you

Yeah, I love you with all of my heart, it's true
