Madeline

Far, far away, I still cannot shrug
Madeline, Madeline standing on the rug

Oh, divine
There was never really anything to see or to hear
Madeline
I've a fist wrapped tight around a gift of tears

Madeline, do you recall

Slow of study, slow to kill
My first blunder to love you still
So it's boring, so it's ill
"Why?" I wonder, I love you still

Actors parade, it cannot be undone
Madeline, Madeline smiling in the sun

Oh, divine
There was never really anything to see or to hear
Madeline
I've a fist wrapped tight around a gift of tears

Madeline, do you recall

Slow of study, slow to kill
My first blunder to love you still
So it's boring, so it's ill
"Why?" I wonder, I love you still
