Stephen Bishop - Madge lyrics
Your rating:
It was 1927 Had the world at my feet A pretty girl on each arm My family was so proud of me I built a lot of buildings Tore half of 'em down One by one they all crumbled Just like me But like a storm in a teacup Like a smile sent down from Heaven Madge, I loved you then And I love you now We ate in the finest restaurants Had the wealthiest friends Most of them are gone, now No one left to say, I knew you when Seems so long since I've remembered The girl I used to know She never saw any of my money But she watched it come and go Like a storm in a teacup Like a smile sent down from Heaven Madge, I loved you then And I love you now They call this place 'Sunnyside' But I ain't seen the sun in a long, long time And my hands don't seem too steady, now But they're still holding onto you Madge, she's probably married now In a nice white house And me, I just sit here in my room Quiet as a mouse But I got my TV turned up loud I'm not going to hear myself retreat If only I'd have kept her I'd have stayed on my feet Like a storm in a teacup Like a smile sent down from Heaven Madge, I loved you then And I love you now Madge, I loved you then And I love you now
