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 |
