[Chorus]
Colourful Melody
Floats 'round my head, can't you see?
Rainbow Notes, Prism Heart
I liked you right you right from the start, now


Colourful Melody
When you're around, I can't breathe
Prism Notes Rainbow Heart
I loved you right from the start, oh~


[Verse]
When I'm with you, my heart beats out of tune
I can't write, I can't think, I can only love you
Sappy love songs won't tell how I
Really truly feel


[Chorus]
Colourful Melody
Floats 'round my head, can't you see?
Rainbow Notes, Prism Heart
Heartbeat flying off the charts


Colourful Melody
Your boyfriend, I wanna be
Prism Notes, Rainbow Heart
Feels like I might fall apart


[Verse]
When I'm with you, I can't breathe, it's true
Don't you know, I can only think of you~
Nothing I can say can tell you how
I really truly feel


Oh~


[Bridge]
Colourful Melody 

Play a song only for me

Rainbow Notes, Prism Heart

Wish for you upon a star, oh~


[Chorus]
Colourful Melody
Floats 'round my head, can't you see?
Rainbow Notes, Prism Heart
I liked you right you right from the start, now


Colourful Melody
When you're around, I can't breathe
Prism Notes Rainbow Heart
I loved you right from the start, oh~

 

Ah~


The author's comments:

I was inspired by a song title only- Colorful x Melody. I've actually never heard it before. I should go do that. 

 

It seems my song has nothing to do with it. That's nice.

Thank you very much. I'm currently thinking of writing more lyrics, actually.

Thank you very much, WindRunner, although I think the rhythm might have been not as good in the verses as in the chorus, so I'll be working on that.

That might be due to the word 'boyfriend'. I actually wanted to use the term 'somethingfriend' because it's more... well, it means 'I'm of any possible gender and have a slightly romantic relationship with you' or something. The song is, however, gender-neutral, though I wrote it for my friend and I to sing. I was really worrying about the cliche parts... This is a very J-Pop style song, so I was afraid someone would come along and not like it because so much has been done that relates to this already. The title is from Colorful x Melody. Those words were sort of bouncing around in my head and then I accidentally hit a few notes on the piano and I made a song. The inspiration for the lyrics was really only the title (Colorful x Melody). I had heard the song long, long ago, due to its popularity and the sheer amount of people who were covering it and making videos for it, etc. I watched the original and was disappointed because they didn't really use the words 'Colorful Melody' more than once, and I didn't like the general song. So I completely forgot about it and went back to my business, only to rewrite it (not at all to the same tune, so I would recommend not trying that) now. Then, of course, I went to listen to the original track just to make sure it wasn't the same, but yes. I'm sorry to hit you over the head with words ;-; What I meant was "thank you so much for commenting, please have a nice day."

I don't know about Katy Perry (but if she sang it, not gonna lie, would be a great track, though I see more of a guy singing it). It's intensely emotional without being cliche-y, melodrama-ish. I love the title. Your chorus, I think, is spot on. Some of the stanzas could use a little more substance, but definitely not necessary. Wonderful song. Now, I'm curious about your inspiration for it.

Thank you so much, mga! I'm having a rather hard time finding a singer, however... Why must all my friends refuse me ;-;

I don't know if that's a compliment or not, based on some folk's opinion on Katy Perry... But thank you :3

Thank you so much, Blue! I have been trying to convince a female friend to sing as I can hit exactly none of the notes ;-;

Thank you very much, Cristel. (Though to be honest, I can't write song lyrics either. I'm just pretending.)
