Oh, the lights of magdala flicker
Dimly on the shore
Holy sailor sailing on the sea
Patiently waiting she walked quietly
To the door
Another lonely night in galilee
Chorus:
Magdalene, dont wrap your dreams in sorrow
Save them for tomorrow if it comes
When well meet within the circle
Round the sun
Oh, if heaven were a lady dont you
Know youd been the one
Through the streets of jerusalem
You followed him once more
Holy sailors come home from the sea
Someone somewheres calling him
To a golden distant shore
Far from the lonely nights in galilee
Chorus:
Magdalene, dont wrap your dreams in sorrow
Save them for tomorrow if it comes
When well meet within the circle
Round the sun
Oh, if heaven were a lady dont you
Know youd been the one
