Share It With Me-All About Eve

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"
