Maddy Songtext
von Jackie Cohen

Maddy doesn′t want your love and she doesn't want mine
Her man′s been missing a long time
He's just like a silk rose
In her mind the years go by and yet it never gets any older
Like a bandit, he steals his kind
Like a child, she thinks she'll be safe on his shoulders

All that once was is no longer but she tries
To stall the night and keep on dreaming till he arrives

Only in her dreams does he arrive
Only in her dreams does he really love her
How long will you wait for your man?
Oh Maddy, how long will you wait for your man?
Is it a question of keeping things the way you planned them?
Oh Maddy, how long will you wait for your man?


Hands cupped in the rain
Waiting for all you need to be given
Maddy, I know you′re afraid
Of wasting time
But you don′t need to make your life a prison

All that once was is no longer but she tries
To stall the night and keep on dreaming till he arrives

Only in her dreams does he arrive
Only in her dreams does he really love her
How long will you wait for your man?
Oh Maddy, how long will you wait for your man?
Is it a question of keeping things the way you planned them?
Oh Maddy, how long will you wait for your man?

How long will you wait for your man?
Oh Maddy, how long will you wait for your man?
Is it a question of keeping things the way you planned?
