Sixteen Down Lyrics

Sunshine stealing stage time From the moon and stars above She said leave me alone I said take me home Sixteen down, living in the hallowed ground
Now the blue has turned to red (Madeline, breathe) All but given up for dead (Madeline, breathe) Ooh, Madeline (Madeline, breathe) Madeline, breathe
Skiff rocked like a cradle And the poor girl fell overboard Rope wrapped around her neck Tangled in her hair soaked wet They dragged the stream The body never to be found
Now the blue has turned to red (Madeline, breathe) All but given up for dead (Madeline, breathe) Ooh, Madeline (Madeline, breathe) Madeline, breathe
The dirt in the stream The body never to be found Accept for the footprints caked In the muddy ground Beside where she laid
My life made the headlines Beneath the waterlily sky She said leave me alone I said take me home Sixteen down, living in the hallowed ground
Now the blue has turned to red (Madeline, breathe) All but given up for dead (Madeline, breathe) Ooh, Madeline (Madeline, breathe)
Now the blue has turned to red (Madeline, breathe) All but given up for dead (Madeline, breathe) Ooh, Madeline (Madeline Reid) Madeline Reid can't breathe
