Lyrics Melissa - Jackson Browne, Gregg Allman

Melissa

Melissa, I knew I just had to kiss ya Heaven knows what I had in mind
When my eyes went blind
And you had to take me home
Because I could not find my way
Mimi, you make my glasses steamy
Heaven knows that Ill take a chance
On a girl from france
Just so long as we dont have to dance till dawn
Maybe baby Im not so smart
But I know Im not your brother
And the way you affect me You neednt suspect me Of falling in love with another
Daisy, your old man thinks Im crazy
Heaven knows I used to go insane
When I heard your name
I knew what I was doin
When I had my brain removed
Maybe baby Im not so smart
I never claimed to be a thinker
But you gotta respect me Cause the way you affect me Ill never have to be a drinker
Bessie, my dreams of you are messy
Heaven knows I used to lie awake
And try to make my heart stop pounding
Long enough to take my rest
