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?
