lyrics

Beautiful Madonna

My beautiful madonna, why wear your crown low? Push it back and dry your weeping eyes so I may see you glow. I reach out to help you up to get back on the road, and you look at me with those deep brown eyes just waiting to explode with the pain you have endured. Yet you carry on. I will walk right by your side through this never ending night, and be your impregnable hide. The brim of your smile awakes the sun and signals the dawn as you rub your eyes and begin to yawn. I brush the hair out of your face, and put everything back in its place. Your eyes are the stars in this deep black night, illuminating the sky, guiding my way in this life, and hidden in your curls is the light of the world. My beautiful madonna, why wear your crown low? Push it back and dry your weeping eyes so I may see you glow.
