I've never been to Rome But I don't need to go I don't need to go to know Life would be sweet and slow

The traffic sign; the washing line Down Holloway Road she goes, wasting time

Just a little sleep I need some dreams to keep To keep my mind from running through The stupid things I do

The shopping's done; the kettle's on And if he calls today I may come undone

Madeleine, could you explain? Madeleine, did she mention my name?

Somewhere in the East A caravan rolled on The waters flowed on through the town The rain fell on everyone

Madeleine, could you explain? Madeleine, did she mention my name? Madeleine, could you explain? Madeleine, did she mention my name?

Do-do-do-do-do...
