Cracker - Sweet Magdalena Of My Misfortune lyrics

rate me

I have lost the one I love to someone else

She lies beside me, but she's not here, she's far away

She's WALKING softly, she's talking sweetly about a dream

Sweet Magdalena of my misfortune, where ARE YOU NOW?

Things I lost, left behind, or threw away

They gather in the dusky light of reverie

Always with me, where I go, sweet company, or is it misery?

Sweet Magdalena of my misfortune, where have you gone?

So many ways to go and lay your burdens down

Yeah, so many hours from now to the dawn

Yeah, so many words I never found to make you stay just one more day

Sweet Magdalena of my misfortune, where have you gone?

Yeah, ooh

Yeah, so many words I never found to make you stay FOR just one more day

Sweet Magdalena of my misfortune, where are you now?

Yeah, sweet Magdalena of my misfortune, where are you now?
