Madeline
Brunette roots and brown eyes
Small town diner disguise
Face that'll make a billboard sign light right up
Hairs a mess in tangles
Corner back booth angle
Still floats like an angel heatin my coffee up
She don't dream anymore
Three young babies
And a house she can't afford
Madeline
Will she ever find
The life she had in mind when she was 17
Cause the leaving kind
Stole her heart, left her behind
She'll just smile and say it's fine like it ain't no thing
And she'll hold it all inside
Madeline
She takes ten for a smoke break
Relives that first mistake
Back seat night on a prom date
With that boy from Hoover high
One last drag off her cigarette
Touches up her lipstick
Couple more hours on a double shift
Then she can close her eyes
Madeline
Will she ever find
The life she had in mind when she was 17
Cause the leaving kind
Stole her heart, left her behind
She'll just smile and say it's fine like it ain't no thing
But she'll hold it all inside
Madeline
She feels the buzz in her pocket
Checks her phone unlocks it
Little heart message in a box says
When are you coming home?
Oh Madeline
Will you ever find
The life you had in mind when you were 17
Girl its closing time
Count your tips ya did your time
It don't look like you designed it
Back in your dream
But I bet you'll be alright
Even if you ain't tonight
