a.p. clarke – song of madelline lyrics

[verse 1]
there once was a girl who was made out of snow
and she would leave puddles wherever she would go
and when she was happy she started to cry
and of course loved a boy who cheated and lied

[verse 2]
when he left for nothing, she was hard as a stone
so these things go
and the drunken priest watched her stand at the end of the pier
heard her singing a song and then just disappear

[verse 3]
well a storm came from the sea and settled over the town
and it ripped up the roofs and made a terrible sound
and the bell of the church blew around for a day
and then fell on the priest and then tolled him away

[verse 4]
the wood ripped and thundered and swirled through the air
all through the year
and the rain turned to snow and then buried them deep
then the snow turned to rain and they drowned in their sleep
and it rained rocks and dogs and a frozen red wine
and the town learnt to sing the song of madelline
[verse 5]
well they drank until morning, and then wrapped themselves warm
they called on her name and then headed in to the storm
they hauled up the nets that they laid in the street
for the thousands of fish that lay dead at their feet

[verse 6]
and the boy he came home, grew rich and grew old
so these things go
but the rocks and the wood and the snow and the wine
and the town all sing on to the song of madelline
