Lyrics Jack Madness - Eaves

Jack Madness

jack undone
telling his son the road is wild
beyond that big ship
to walk barefooted on the tides
jack wrote a letter to madness
asked them to drive him insane
as crazy as a crazy man could be
wrote in words his lover’s to blame
she sighed through the wall
love’s too small to stop the rain
she sung her sad song
as she walked through rose covered gates
with the sun on her face
but she found jack’s letter to madness
enough truth to drive a woman insane
she hid jack’s sorrow with sadness
said in words her lover’s to blame
red hair in the autumn
denim jeans in the dark
burgundy coloured blossom
more than money’s due worth
red breaks in the autumn
keeps the weather at bay
but jack’s mind’s where the storm is
and it spins him away
now the children of madness
to much truth for any child to contain
some walk slow some walk backward
they say with life that others are to blame
