lyrics

I was younger than I am now,
and younger I’ll always be by your side,
and I think different than I did then,
but thoughts of you clearly come to me again:
you put that light on the moon,
it’ll calm you in peace,
you put that light on the moon
and you fall asleep

Lady Madonna’s got her heart full of wanting
which she sets like an alarm clock
to get up in the morning
and it carries her right through
on the east side of Providence
it’s the wrong side, but who cares?
when she’s got so much confidence

now I filled my cup with sweet lemonade
‘til barefeet in autumn no longer sufficed,
and wondered aloud the time that had passed
‘tween railings on stairways of grey cement,
and I strummed out a chord, and remembered a tune
that settled in nicely, if only too soon

I hope you call on my birthday
and sing that old song out of tune
‘cause I’m ‘bout done waitin’ ‘round
for that moment I would’ve found
your missing part in my heart and get mixed up

the cool night breeze upon your knees,
it pleases you to sleep,
and watch them still, those rainbows curl
across your closed eyelids,
steady as the sun goes, slowly settin’ down
you’ve been away for too long
