The One I Want The Most by Melodie Yvonne Ramey

You’re everything I needed that I didn’t really want
I just don’t like your kind of guy the kind that needs to flaunt
I didn’t want to know you and I didn’t want to care
But now I’m stuck here with regrets that permeate the air

You beat me to the punch line
You beat me in this race
You left me all alone all broken, lost, and out of place

Why’d I let you near me when I really shouldn’t dare?
Why’d I try to help you when you didn’t really care?
Why’d I fall for you in such an inconvenient way?
I know the type of girl I am, I’m not the type who stays

You beat me to the punch line
You beat me in this race
You left me all alone embarrassed tear stains on my face

Now you’ve left me fuddled, and you’re nothing but a ghost
I never wanted you, but you’re the one I want the most
And though I never really even wanted you to care
I’d take it all away for one more chance to have you near

You beat me to the punch line
You beat me in this race
Now I’m just a low life and a second place disgrace

You beat me to the punch line
You beat me in this race
And I’d take it all away for one more chance to see your face

Melodie Yvonne

Melodie Yvonne, lead photographer and owner of Photographic Melodie, grew up in the small southern Indiana town of North Vernon. She picked up her first camera at the age of 5, and was immediately hooked. By the age of 15 she began to turn every trip, even just to the local park, into a fantasy scene of her own imagination, and started mentoring with many local professionals. Melodie received an Associates of Applied Science in Visual Technologies majoring in Photography from Ivy Tech in 2002 after studying under acclaimed professors and many other masters in the field.

Melodie’s main focus has always been music photography. Growing up listening to many amazing musicians inspired her dream to create visual images that made people feel the way they do when listening to music. Her goal was to help people SEE the music.

Melodie has done numerous jobs around the country ranging from working for bands to being the official photographer on many southern Indiana Poker Runs. Her specialties are in nature, music, and candid event photography. She published her first print work, a collection of images & poetry, in 2011, and has since published many more print works. Melodie currently acts as owner & lead photographer at Photographic Melodie, House Photographer for Purdue Theatre, and Tour Photographer for multiple Billboard Charts topping bands as well as freelance work with many other media outlets, venues, and musicians.
