song lyrics Share It With Me lyrics
Madeleine hears the bohemians say She s selfish and crazy Which isn t so far from the truth, She s the essence of youth, The flower you place on eternity s grave. The romantic who isn t afraid Of the beat of her heart, She raises a glass to your art And when she gets drunk she says... Oh, give me the autumn, give me the trees, Gather up everything I ever wanted And give it me, please Give me the ocean, give me the sea Gather up everything I ever wanted And share it with me How many hearts are knocked down in the street ? How many poets are driven To drink and to verse, By her singular eyes piercing out through a flight-path of Rarified air Where all the shiny black birds of the west Make a rest in her hair ? She raises a glass to your love And when she gets drunk she says... And you ask where she comes from and she tells you: "the earth," Like the place that you come from Is a whole different world She says "life is a banquet, So why hang around Catching crumbs from a table ? Come share it with me." song lyrics
