Sunshine stealing stage time
|
From the moon and stars above
|
She said leave me alone
|
I said take me home
|
Sixteen down living in the hallowed ground
|
|
Chorus:
|
Now the blue has turned to red (ahh Madeline, breathe)
|
All but given up for dead (ahh Madeline, breathe)
|
Ooh, Madeline (Madeline, breathe) Madeline, breathe!
|
|
Skiff rocked like a cradle
|
And the poor girl fell overboard
|
Rope wrapped around her neck
|
Tangled in her hair soaked wet
|
They dragged the stream
|
The body never to be found
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
The dirt in the stream
|
The body never to be found
|
Accepting for the footprints caked
|
In the muddy ground beside where she laid
|
|
My life made the headlines
|
Beneath the waterlily sky
|
She said leave me alone
|
I said take me home
|
Sixteen down living in the hallowed ground
|
|
Now the blue has turned to red (ahh Madeline, breathe)
|
All but given up for dead (ahh Madeline, breathe)
|
Ooh, Madeline (Madeline, breathe)
|
|
Now the blue has turned to red (ahh Madeline, breathe)
|
All but given up for dead (ahh Madeline, breathe)
|
Ooh, Madeline (Madeline Reid) Madeline Reid can't breathe
|
