Magdalene - Peter Salett

I see you

You see me

But the ways

That we see

Aren’t the same

What I want you to be

Is not the way

You see me

It’s a shame

And I do complain

Oh, magdalene

You’ve kept me under your spell

I’ve been searching for the arrows that fell

But you can’t even seem to tell

Oh, magdalene

When you pray

By your bed at night

Do you say

Everything in your mind?

When you lay

In your bed at night

Do you say his name

And smile?

It’s a shame

That I will have to take

'cause, magdalene

You’ve kept me under your spell

I’ve been feeling like a fool with a bell

But you can’t even seem to tell

Oh, magdalene

Magdalene…

It’s a strain

That I would like to forsake

But magdalene

You’ve kept me under your spell

I’ve been searching for the arrows that fell

Maybe that is just as well

'cause you can’t even seem to tell

Magdalane…
