Bear's Den - Magdalene Lyrics

Bear's Den Lyrics

"Magdalene"

Sing a song for the daughters of Magdalene
All tied up in their white ribbon
November 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 said I never understand the pain or share the shame
But you know that I want to

But you give 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, oh my God, how could you take her from me?

So I told, and the sisters of mercy came
By your school just yesterday
I never meant for to cause you any pain
I wanna make it better, make it go away

So sing a song for the daughters of Magdalene
All smothered 'neath the white linen
If Mary knew how she was being used
So misconstrued, how you were being used

But you give 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, oh my God, how could you take her from me?
You give 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, oh my God, how could you take her from me?
