Madeline Lyrics - Madeline - Tickle Me Pink

There's a girl back home I used to know 

Who cried herself to sleep every night 

We all knew, we all knew 

Only girl who would ever compromise 

Strike a deal with the devil to save a night 

We all knew, we all knew 

She tried to call me a month ago 

To sing me a song that she just wrote 

But I wasn't home, I should've known 

That time had taken its toll, she had no place to go 

They found her body resting by the river 

Oh, I never said goodbye, I wish I would have tried 

I couldn't hear her cries as she filled her veins with light 

Until she saw the light 

I remember we would hide behind the trees 

Smoking cigarettes until our throats would bleed 

Those were the days, those were the days, yeah 

Never scared, never worried that the summer would end 

Invincible to every sharp end 

We drove so fast, thought it would last 

But time had taken its toll, she had no place to go 

They found her body resting by the river 

Oh, I never said goodbye, I wish I would have tried 

I couldn't hear her cries as she filled her veins with light 

Until she saw the light 

Madeline, Madeline, you will be remembered 

Madeline, Madeline, we still have September 

Madeline, Madeline, we'll see you on the other side 

Die 

If I could turn back time, I'd find a way to remind you 

That some how you could try to give in 

And fight the good fight 

Oh, you didn't have to die, you filled your veins with lies 

My precious Madeline
