Born in the city, you are Mother Nature's friend You come one step closer to yourself Over by the looking glass you worship no one else I go one step back inside my shell Sitting in your country house, you work them to the bone So they tell me who's been there There's no doubt about it, you've been heaven tailor made And they talk about you everywhere You made your choice You have the world in the palm of your hands I'll never know And I will never understand (Madeleine) I can't wait anymore (Madeleine) I can't take anymore You live the life of luxury, you have to pay no rent You come one step further, what is your role? You're headin' for that deadline, baby, now tell me what you find? I go one step deeper inside the cold You live your life in misery, how can you be so cruel You go one step nearer to the wall I know this is a tragedy, now tell me who's your fool? You come one step closer to the fall You made your choice You have the world in the palm of your hands I'll never know And I will never understand (Madeleine) I can't wait anymore (Madeleine) I can't take anymore You made your choice You have the world in the palm of your hands I'll never know And I will never understand (Madeleine) I can't wait anymore (Madeleine) I can't take anymore (Madeleine) I can't wait anymore (Madeleine) I can't take anymore I can't wait anymore I can't take anymore I can't wait anymore I can't take anymore I can't wait anymore I can't take anymore I can't wait anymore I can't take anymore
