A verse is a part of the song with the same melody buy different words, the chorus is in the same key as the verse with a different melody and the same words repeated (like a motif). The melody is the common note structure of the song. A bridge is the middle part of the song that is in a corresponding key, but different then the main key of the song. The intro is the very beginning of the song that lays out the mood, key and time signature of the song.

Okay.
A verse is the words in a traditionally written song such as a hymn, given one pass through For example the first verse of amazing grace starts, "Amazing grace, how sweet the sound." The last verse starts, "When we've been there 10,000 years."
The melody is in the music and not in the words. It is the notes sung when going through the song. Even if the words are different in each verse the melody remains the same from verse to verse.
The chorus is the portion of the song that is repeated, generally in between verses.
A bridge and an intro are parts of songs arranged for performance or for contemporary music which is not arranged in a strict verse by verse arrangement. The intro, of course, is at the beginning of the song and is repeated on subsequent verses. A bridge is a section somewhere in the middle of the song that allows the song to make an irregular jump such as from the chorus back into the chorus.
Perhaps like this
intro
verse - chorus
verse - chorus
verse - chorus
bridge
verse - chorus
bridge - chorus
in this example the bridge is repeated. The first use allows the last chorus to be set off and therefore emphasized. The last use is to allow the song to end by repeating the chorus with emphasis.

First, all of those labels in a song are relative to each other, except melody. For example, the "bridge" is only designated as that because it is in contrast to the verse & chorus.
Melody:A sequence of single tones so related to one another as to make up a particular phrase or idea.
A chorus typically is the part of the song that contains the "main" melody. In pop music, often the part of the song that contains the song title.
A verse is a sort of lead up to the main melody/chorus, creating contrast in order to make the chorus stand out more. A majority of the time, the structure of the verse is repeated many times (typically 2, up to 5 times) in a song.
As I stated at first, a bridge is a passage that is in some way melodically different from both the chorus and the verse. Not every song contains a bridge. Often, it is only played once in a song.
An intro is simply that, an introduction to a song; much like a 'forward' in a book. It may foreshadow the verse or chorus, or it may be completely different.

isnt it obtrusive the words you sing are beside the point the verse, refrain and bridge confer with the musical ingredient of the song many times the refrain is a little extra upbeat, and the bridge is many times a metamorphosis of key or chord progression, beat and so on.
