Madge

Stephen Bishop
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
<Interlude>
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
It 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
<Interlude>
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
<Interlude>
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
