Procol Harum - Magdalene (My Regal Zonophone) lyrics

rate me

Though i know the night has fallen and the sun's sailed out to sea

I will wait here for the band to play the trumpet voluntary

And with one foot on the seashore and the other in the sand

I will stand here plaiting daisies whilst you play the piano-grand

Caprice, your bugle blew away the cobwebs from my ears

And for once i stood quite naked. unashamed, i wept the tears

Which i tried to hide inside myself from me, i mean from you

But the shame i found too painful and the pain it only grew

Magdalene, my regal zonophone
