Letra de ' Maddy ' de 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 he never gets any older
Like a bandit, he steals his time
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 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?
Oh, Maddy how long will you wait?

[Outro]
