Madeleine - Elysian Fields

What to do Madeleine

Sigh or reach Madeleine

What to be Madeleine

Sky or tree Madeleine

Oh Madeleine

She’s wooing the rain

And changing the names

Of everything

What’s in your hand Madeleine

Much more than you know little darling

Cup your ear towards the window

The owl he hoots in the night

He says, «Who's Madeleine?»

A flickering flame

Rivaling the light from all the stars

I’m always on the run and I hate copy paste for god’s sake

She’s on the ridge in the dusk

Which way will she go

Down to the field of rusteds

She stands so still in the breeze

You stand so still my love

With all your might

Where do you go my love

With your eyes shut tight

Oh Madeleine

There’s a swirl at your feet

The leaves they scamper and chide

They say, «Who's Madeleine?»

A flickering flame

Drying the tears of heaven
