I take you hand in mine   And journey back in time   To avignon   Do you recall the day   It seems like yesterday   When love came along   The little street cafe   Where we would hide away   Just playin' our song   We strolled along lover's lane   Ignoring showers of rain   My sweet madeline      We didn't own a thing   But we had everything   My madeline   Down by the riverside   We'd sit and watch the tide   My madeline   We used to have such fun   We used to be as one   We're still the same   Just picture in your mind   All those carefree times   My sweet madeline      I found my first love   In avignon   My first and last love   In avignon   Let's go back and say hello   To the memories of long ago   Together we'll wander   Through old avignon      The cafe still remains   Although it's rearranged   Our table's still there   The same old atmosphere   Is that our song I hear   Love everywhere   You look the same today   As you did yesterday   Sun in your hair   Gonna walk through the town   Take a look around   With my sweet madeline
