Madeleine
Acoustic pop love songLyrics
[Verse 1]
You were eighteen, sunlight in your hair,
I was older, trying not to stare,
In the garden, you’d lie with grace,
So beautiful, in your secret place.
Your laughter echoed down the street,
Barefoot in the grass beneath your feet,
A forbidden dream, too close, too far,
You were my summer’s shining star.
[Pre-Chorus]
But time, it moved us both along,
I never told you, I was wrong.
[Chorus]
Oh Madeleine, you stole my breath,
Back then, you were all I had left,
Now years have passed, and you’ve grown,
But that beauty, it’s still your own.
[Verse 2]
Fifteen years, and life’s turned around,
I saw you again, so rooted to the ground,
A mother now, with children at your side,
Still the same girl, full of life and pride.
Your smile hasn’t changed a bit,
But now there’s strength inside of it,
It’s more than just the girl next door,
You’ve become something even more.
[Pre-Chorus]
But time, it carries us away,
The words I held, I couldn’t say.
[Chorus]
Oh Madeleine, you stole my breath,
Back then, you were all I had left,
Now years have passed, and you’ve grown,
But that beauty, it’s still your own.
[Bridge]
The years have softened all my fear,
But seeing you brings it all near,
You’ve become the woman I adore,
Though time has changed what came before.
[Outro]
Oh Madeleine, you’ll always be,
That summer’s light, a memory,
Now as a mother, you shine so bright,
But to me, you’re still my stolen light.
