Madeline

It's like nothing ever good never seemed to come her way,
A lonely girl, she likes to keep her space.
If she never lets them close they can never run away,
A child of two homes, with nothing but her daddy's name.
But he walked out the door like he had somewhere to go,
Left her like a stranger on the side of the road
And she cries, but he don't ever see her cry.
----
Madeline, don't let that darkness go and cloud your eyes.
Leave this all behind.
Love will find you, if you'd just give it time.
Give it time, my Madeline.
----
It's like nothing ever good never seemed to come her way,
All the boys they treat her right as rain.
But no one ever could never seem to want to stay;
They're all the same, just different faces different names.
Then he walks out the door like he has somewhere to be,
Couldn't give a damn about the girl asleep
And she knows, when she wakes up alone.
----
Madeline, don't let that darkness go and cloud your eyes.
Leave this all behind.
Love will find you, if you'd just give it time.
Give it time, my Madeline.

It's like nothing ever good never seemed to come her way.
