Rhyming and Lyrics – Just A Stray

Just A Stray by Melodie Yvonne

How can you see me and just turn away
How can you go on another day
If I’d known you were leavin’ I’d begged you to stay
You just thought of yourself and now I’m just a stray

Now I’m just a stray grabbin’ scraps off of tables
Where is that life that you promised in fables
Where is that heart that I always adored
Now I’m just a stray and you’re just a whore

How could you leave and not say goodbye
I could fill up an ocean with tears that I’ve cried
I don’t know how you could treat me this way
I just wanted to love you now I’m just a stray

Now I’m just a stray grabbin’ scraps off of tables
Where is that life that you promised in fables
Where is that heart that I always adored
Now I’m just a stray and you’re just a whore

The silence is loud and it tears me apart
You walked away, but you kept my heart
I don’t know how long I can go on this way
I just wanted to love you now I’m just a stray

Now I’m just a stray and we’re worlds apart
When you walked away you took my heart
You never gave any, but still I want more
Now I’m just a stray and you’re just a whore

Now I’m just a stray grabbin’ scraps off of tables
Where is that life that you promised in fables
Where is that heart that I always adored
Now I’m just a stray and you’re just a whore

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.
