Madeline Lyrics by Tommy Wallach

We All Looked Up: The Album

2015

Madeline, please tell your sister
Tell her I’ll miss her
But I had to go
Madeline, tell her I love her
But please don’t tell her
What she shouldn’t have to know
How I fell in love with you
How my heart was seldom true
Just say I’ve gone across the sea
Then, Madeline, come find me
Madeline, you’ll hear her heart break
But please for her sake
You must stay strong
Madeline, you’ll hear her weeping
But if you weaken
Think of this song
How I fell in love with you
How my heart was seldom true
Then say I’ve gone across the sea
Oh, Madeline, come find...
And the day will come when she must learn the truth
And she’ll rail at how I stole away your youth
Then she’ll sail across the sea to find me with you
She’ll ask why
I’ll reply
That she reminded me of you
She was just your age
The very same stage
So soft, so pure
Madeline, I was a boy then
I had a sickness
You are my cure
How I fell in love with you
How my heart was finally true
When you’ve washed away her tears
Come sail across the sea
Oh, Madeline, there I’ll be
