sonnerie téléphone portable pour Madge
Video clip

It was 1927
Had the world at my feet
A pretty girl on each arm
My family was so proud of me

I built a lot of buildings
Tore half of 'em down
One by one they all crumbled
Just like me

But like a storm in a teacup
Like a smile sent down from heaven
Madge, i loved you then
And i love you now

We ate in the finest restaurants
Had the wealthiest friends
Most of them are gone, now
No one left to say, i knew you when

Seems so long since i've remembered
The girl i used to know
She never saw any of my money
But she watched it come and go

Like a storm in a teacup
Like a smile sent down from heaven
Madge, i loved you then
And i love you now

They call this place 'sunnyside'
But i ain't seen the sun in a long, long time
And my hands don't seem too steady, now
But they're still holding onto you

Madge, she's probably married now
In a nice white house
And me, i just sit here in my room
Quiet as a mouse

But i got my tv turned up loud
I'm not going to hear myself retreat
If only i'd have kept her
I'd have stayed on my feet

Like a storm in a teacup
Like a smile sent down from heaven
Madge, i loved you then
And i love you now

Madge, i loved you then
And i love you now
