| Now, Madeline, your friends don’t understand the thing we have
|
| You sit up nightly on the bed, leave the TV in the corner on
|
| Sometimes you don’t quite know what’s going on
|
| Your mother swears it’s in your head
|
| So I sit outside your house, waiting
|
| So can I come over?
|
| I’m not a dream that you wish you’d have
|
| If faced the choice, you’d dream so coy of all the boys
|
| Well, let me tell you now
|
| Madeline, when you were young did you think we would wed?
|
| I always did but never said
|
| In the summer, in your favourite dress when all your first loves left you such
|
| a mess, I’d come on over none the less
|
| So I sit outside your house, waiting
|
| Darling, I see you with those open sleeping eyes
|
| In the night time under moonlight, under sweeping starless skies
|
| Now can I come over?
|
| I’m not a dream that you wish you’d have
|
| If faced the choice, you’d dream so coy of all the boys, of all the boys |
