You seem to be inevitable to me Like a memory of the future I was and will be with you Over and over again I keep tasting that sweet Madeleine Looking back of my life now I'm in Asking if not later then when It's taking me all of my life It's taking me all of my life to find you It's taking me all of my life It's taking me all of my life to find you You,you,you,you You unlock the past, So many scenes moving fast At last the right conclusion Or at least a sweet illusion Over and over again I keep tasting that sweet Madeleine Looking back of my life now I'm in Asking if not later then when It's taking me all of my life It's taking me all of my life to find you It's taking me all of my life It's taking me all of my life to find you You seem to be a perfect memory Of the future, reminding me How life is meant to be Over and over again I keep tasting that sweet Madeleine Looking back of my life now I'm in Asking if not later then when It's taking me all of my life It's taking me all of my life to find you It's taking me all of my life It's taking me all of my life to find you It's taking me all of my life It's taking me all of my life to find you It's taking me all of my life It's taking me all of my life to find you It's taking me all of my life
