stephen bishop - madge lyrics

Loading...

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
