Ukulele Jim Madeline song lyrics

He believed she was a gift sent from above

She was the kind of girl that he'd been dreaming of

He knew that he was bound to fall in love

with Madeline

They lived together so in love for several years

Until the day she wrote a note and disappeared

He read the words she wrote and shed a tear

for Madeline

And he cried-

I'll wait for you 'til the end of time, Madeline

Please won't you just give me a sign, Madeline

Let me know if you're still mine, Madeline

He never understood just why she had to go

What did he do to make her want to hurt him so?

He could fill an ocean with the things he didn't know

about Madeline

And he cried-

I'll wait for you 'til the end of time, Madeline

Please won't you just give me a sign, Madeline

Let me know if you're still mine, Madeline

The love that you give away

Comes back to you someday

So have the faith to say what's on your mind

Take care in the things you do

It'll all come back to you

If you see it through it'll be all right

Fall on your knees and pray

That she'll come back some day

And you might hear her say she'll stay this time

She's the one for you

You tell yourself it's true

And try to hold on to that lonely lie

It always ends the same

There's no-one left to blame

So you call her name

O, Madeline

He left his home in search of another way

To find the girl who long ago had gone astray

Then one day to his house a letter came

from Madeline

And it read-

"I'll be home soon on the number 9, love of mine. You have always been on my mind.

I hope we're fine. See you soon. I love you.

Signed,

Madeline."

And he cried-

I'll wait for you 'til the end of time, Madeline

Please won't you just give me a sign, Madeline

Let me know if you're still mine, Madeline

My Madeline
