Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sing a song for the daughters of Magdalene
All tied up in their white ribbon
November came and before I got your letter
I will love you better, I will love you true
[Verse 2]
Every day I would wait by the gates for you
With time how your heart withdrew
You said I never understand the pain or share the shame
But you know that I wanted to
[Verse 3]
But you give me hope and now you take it away
You took my love and now you celebrate
When the morning comes, no I don't believe
In my God, oh my God, how could you take her from me?
[Verse 4]
So I told, and the sisters of mercy
Came by your school just yesterday
I never meant for to cause you any pain
I wanna make it better, make it go away
[Verse 5]
So, sing a song for the daughters of Magdalene
All smothered 'neath the white linen
If Mary knew how she was being used
So misconstrued, how you were being used
[Verse 6]
But you give me hope and now you take it away
You took my love and now you celebrate
When the morning comes, no I don't believe
In my God, oh my God, how could you take her from me?
[Verse 7]
You give me hope and now you take it away
You took my love and now you celebrate
When the morning comes, no I don't believe
In my God, oh my God, how could you take her from me?
