[Verse 1: Nick]
Madeleine
What's up with those tears in your eyes?
What happened when you shut down
And all the amber lights turn into red?
In the silence of your cave
You feel safe, you decorate it with velvet drapes
Outside you see the dark woods
But you don't know there's fields of gold ahead
[Pre-Chorus: Nick]
Hold on, don't let go
Hold on, you'll know
That help is on its way
[Chorus: Nick]
Rise up, rise up, rise up Madeleine
The sun will come out again
Rise up, rise up, rise up Madeleine
The summer will come and
Kiss you with honesty
Love you unconditionally
Trust you and let you breathe
Give you back your dignity
So rise up, rise up, rise and live again
As only you can Madeleine
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, Madeleine
[Verse 2: AJ with Brian]
'Member when
You used to sit and watch from the bridge
And wonder where the ships would go
Who was on and what they would find out?
(Oooh-oooh)
You wrote it in a notebook
And said someday that this would be a story to tell
And you put it in a movie
Maybe be the movie star
Something stole your tears and wiped your smile away
Hey-hey
[Pre-Chorus: AJ with Brian]
Hold on, don't let go
Hold on, and you'll know
Help is on its way
[Chorus: All, AJ with Brian, AJ]
Rise up, rise up, rise up Madeleine
The sun will come out again
Rise up, rise up, rise up Madeleine
The summer will come and kiss you with honesty
Love you unconditionally
Trust you and let you breathe
Give you back your dignity
So rise up, rise up, rise and live again
As only you can Madeleine
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
[Bridge: Howie with Kevin & Brian]
Let the sunshine warm your heart today
[Interlude: AJ]
So rise up, rise up, rise up Madeleine
Oh-oh-oh-oh!
[Chorus: All, Nick with Brian, Nick]
Rise up, rise up, rise up Madeleine
The sun will come out again
Rise up, rise up, rise up Madeleine
The summer will come and kiss you with honesty
Love you unconditionally
Trust you and let you breathe
Give you back your dignity
So rise up, rise up, rise and live again
As only you can Madeleine
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, Madeleine
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, Madeleine
