Verse 1
My dear listeners, you’re important to me,
Your listening sets my spirit free.
You can’t know how much it means,
To hear my words inside your dreams.

Chorus
Madelyn Dionne is the one you see,
But every song is still from me.
I hide behind the scenes, it’s true,
But I am really here, and I know you.

Verse 2
Madelyn came from an old friend long gone,
Her last name came from a singer, Dionne.
She stands with wisdom, wit, and grace,
But it’s my very soul behind her face.

Chorus
Madelyn Dionne is the one you see,
But every song is still from me.
I hide behind the scenes, it’s true,
But I am really here, and I know you.

Verse 3
I know your hurts, your secret joys,
The words unspoken, the hidden noise.
And whatever she writes, whatever she brings,
Trust me, I’m in every single thing.

Bridge
I write these songs for you all day long,
I’ve been with you all along.
She’s good for me and good for you,
Madelyn is my voice to you.

Chorus
Madelyn Dionne is the one you see,
But every song is still from me.
I hide behind the scenes, it’s true,
But I am really here, and I know you.

Verse 4
She is the voice that I’m behind,
But still it’s me in every line.
My true heart is shining clear,
In every song that brought you here.

Chorus
Madelyn Dionne is the name you see,
But every song is still from me.
I hide behind the scenes, it’s true,
But I am here, and I know you.

Outro
I hide behind the scenes, it’s true,
But I’m right here, and so are you.


****** Description *****

I have not made a huge effort to hide myself to make you think something that is not true. So I will tell you what you might not already know. Madelyn Dionne is my pen name. I am a desperately private person. I am profoundly introverted, elderly, and partially disabled. There are many things that could have prevented me from writing songs, but many things have come together in my life that make it possible for me to write so I decided to give you a person you could see and love, but rest assured, she has no idea of you. I do. I know you. I know the hurts, the joys, the things you won’t say… the things you are afraid of and the things you love. You are who I write for no matter what name I choose or what pretty picture you see. I am still me.

I chose Madelyn Dionne decades ago. I always wanted to be her in some way. Fashion brand, trade name for some business, whatever. None of that ever happened. She comes from the first name of a dear, long gone friend of mine, and the last name of a singer I love. Madelyn + Dionne (Warwick) = Madelyn Dionne. Her image is who I would be if I weren’t me. She has wisdom, great intelligence, strength of steel, and a wit that dares to say her mind. She stands her ground and loves deeply and thoroughly. I think she is good for me and she is good for you. Just know that whatever she says, writes, produces — is me.
