lyrics

While walking though life I would never fall
If I could be close to it all and all
If I could be close to it all.

If I had my dream it would not fall down
If I could live high on the ground
The sound of high is a good one to many around
When they wanna be close to it all
And I wanna be close to it all and all
I wanna be close to it all.

The village suger takers
Madison Avenue pink dream makers
They try to escape from it all
But instead they build walls, that's all
But they wanna be close to it all.

If I had my dream I would fill a hall
And tell all the people tear down the wall
That keeps you from being a part of it all
'Cause they gotta get close to it all.

The village sugar takers
Madison Avenue pink dream makers
They try to escape from it all
But instead they build walls, that's all
But they wanna be close to it all.

There's just one more thing that I wanna to say
Everyone's got there own special way
That keeps them from getting to close to the day
Accept and be part of it all and all
Everyone tear down your own little wall
That keeps you from being a part of it all
'Cause you gotta be one with the one and all
And Everyone tear down your own little wall
That keeps you from being a part of it all
'Cause you gotta be one with the one and all
You gotta be close to it all.

Melanie Nashville, Tennessee

Pieces of a career, scattered by the winds of experience and assembled again by the force of love into the most personal and brilliant moments of her musical journey. Melanie is poised to enlighten new generations about what it means to sing with both passion and eloquence, to write at once with intelligence and emotion, and to inspire through song. Nobody does this better.
