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


Magdalene don't wrap your dreams in sorrow
Save them for tomorrow if it'd come

When we'll meet within the circle round the sun
Oh if heaven were a lady don't you know you'd been the one


Through the streets of Jerusalem you followed him once more
Holy sailor's come home from the sea
Someone somewhere's calling him to a golden distant shore

Far from the lonely nights in Galilee

Oh Magdalene don't wrap your dreams in sorrow...
