Lyrics Eugene McGuinness

Eugene McGuinness

Madeleine

You were dancing like a dying matador

Amongst an armada of four-by-fours

We were running in the morning from the land of Lego

Fugitives of Rainbow Road

Where all the golden pavestones have a rainbow glow

But if it's every-fucking-where you go

Then surely it's no rainbow

No hi there's or "how do you do?'s

Just a blur where I was introduced to you

No chance of weather or dissertation deadlines

I knew we were leaving, yeah, we were leaving

Me and Madeleine

And now I'm scribbling chick little hearts

I tell my friends and they all rip me apart

Paper aeroplanes launched across the bar

With piss-take love notes

Embarrassing to say the least

Peeling the label off your Orange Reef

We made a swift exit at double speed

Discussing rainbows

No "hi there"s or "how do you do?"s

Just a blur where I was introduced to you

No chance of weather or dissertation deadlines

I knew we were leaving, yeah, we were leaving

Me and Madeleine

I knew we were leaving, yeah, we were leaving

Me and Madeleine

I knew we were leaving, yeah, we were leaving

Me and Madeleine
