Magdalene Songtext

von Bear's Den

Sing a song for the daughters of Magdalene
All tied up in their white ribbon
Novemeber came and before I got your letter I will love you better

I will love you true
Every day I would wait by the gates for you
With time how your heart withdrew
You'd said i'd never understand the pain
Or share the shame but I wanted to
But you gave me hope and now you take it away
You took my love and now you celebrate
When the morning comes, no I don't believe
That my god, my god how could you take it from me
So I told when the sisters of mercy came
By your school just yesterday
I never meant for to cause you any pain
I want to make it better, make it go away
So sing a song for the daughters of Magdalene
All smothered beneath the white linen
If Mary knew how she was being used,
So misconstrued, how you were being used
But you gave me hope and now you take it away
You took my love and now you celebrate
When the morning comes, no I don't believe
That my god, my god how could you take it from me
You gave me hope and now you take it away
You took my love and now you celebrate
When the morning comes, no I don't believe
That my god, my god how could you take it from me
