Lyrics for The Ballad Of Mary Magdelan by Dar Williams:
| | | Artist: | Dar Williams |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | The Ballad Of Mary Magdelan | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 97 | | | | Lyrics: | my name is mary magdalen
i come from palestine
please excuse these rags i'm in
i've
fallen on hard times
but long ago i had my work
when i was in my prime
but i gave it up
all for love
it was his career or mine
jesus loved me this i know
why on earth did
i ever let him go
he was always faithful, he was always kind
but he walked off with this
heart of mine
a love like this comes but once
this i do believe
and i'll not see
his life again
as i live and breathe
and i'm sorry if i might offend
but i'll never
see
how the tenderness i shared with him
became a herecy
jesus loved me this i
know
why on earth did i ever let him go
he was always faithful, he was always kind
but
he walked off with this heart of mine
and i remember nights we spent
whispering our
creed
our rituals, our sacrament
the stars, our canopy
and there beneath an olive
tree
we'd offer up our plate
god's creation, innocent
his arms surrounding
me
jesus loves me this i know
why on earth did he ever have to go
he was always
faithful, he was always kind
but he walked off with this heart of mine
he was always
faithful, he was always kind
but he walked off with this heart of mine | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
