Kerenyi/Spears - Madeline Lyrics

You're dealt a hand, you've never played
In need of high hearts, you got low spades
You bet it all, but your bluff's betrayed
By every tell you've made

Oh baby, Just give it time
Your heart will mend and
Leave this behind
And maybe, on down the line
You'll lean on love again
Only to find

You're the light in the dark
A sole, shooting star
Oh Madeline
You're one of a kind

You've tried so hard to make the grade
But telling tales is not your trade
Now you're left lying in the bed you made
A quiet renegade

You wager on, act unafraid
Dance on the edge of the razor's blade
Till your left crying in the bed we laid
Was it worth the price you paid
A siren's serenade

Oh baby, Just give it time
Your heart will mend and
Leave this behind
And maybe, on down the line
You'll lean on love again
Only to find

You're the light in the dark
A sole, shooting star
Oh Madeline
You're one of a kind
