This is a song about my friend Maddie. I love her dearly and she's the inspiration behind it all. It kind of was think of doing a really watered down Steely Dan haha. Shoutout to Gabe Warsaw with the CLUTCH drums.

lyrics

Madeleine

Madeleine, Madeleine
Why don’t you call me, Madeleine
I thought you loved me, you can’t recognize me if I
pass you by
Madeleine. Madeleine
Where are you Madeleine?
A ghost in hiding, I thought that was my thing
I guess i miss you Madeleine

You said you’d always be there for me
That you’d be my friend through everything.
Well there’s still some time left
Unless I’ll fall unto my death
Ok, I’m dramatic but you know I wanna see you all the time
BUT YOU’RE NEVER AROUND

Madeleine, Madeleine
Pick up the phone Madeleine
You know I love ya, think the world of ya. But you ya suck at calling me
Madeleine, Madeleine
Where are you Madeleine?
No where to be found. Don’t even make a sound.
Just wanna see you Madeleine

You don’t care if I see you
You don’t even call me
You’re always saying “we need to be closer”
And then you blame it on me
I walk around and what do I see
You playing these games just by saying you’re waiting on me
while you’re hanging with your best friends
hanging with my friends
But you never try to hang with me

Madeleine, Madeleine
Why don’t you call me, Madeleine
I thought you loved me, you can’t recognize me if I
pass you by
Madeleine . Madeleine .
Where are you Madeleine?
A ghost in hiding, I thought that was my thing
I guess i miss you Madeleine

Madeleine, Madeleine
I’m so sorry Madeleine
I should’ve called you, more and I never wanna pass you by
Madeleine, Madeleine .
Please forgive me. Madeleine
You’re my long sister, wanna spend some time with ya
*cough*
I guess I miss you Madeleine
I guess I miss you Madeleine
I guess I miss you Madeleine
