lyrics

if i could take back all the things i said
i know i'd just screw it up all over again

the last thing i said has been in the air
too long
and that's lended it
an importance i never intended
now my meaning is as dead as the air
so we scrutinize each other in silence
losing you with every breath

madeleine
i must have been
crazy to think i could say
what i want to
madeleine
i don't think
you knew what i was saying
when i stopped talking
i had it all worked out in my head
and now i wonder where it all went
dropped the ball again

now all our friends
left us alone again
they took their conversation with them
i turn the radio up too loud
you turn it down
and the fireworks go off in my head
you watch and you patiently wait
as i calculate the distance between us
hyperconscious of the placement of hands

i'm rememberin'
seeing you in
the flicker of a tv screen
i'm rememberin'
seeing you in
the glow of a domelight

you whisper that you want me to stay
i whisper that i'd better go
cause what if something happened between us?
god, what if nothing did?
