Paroles de Lady Magdalene

The man on the right is a man undone
He'd give you his soul if you asked him for some
A child in his way for he needs to believe
That love is a song
For each man to sing
The man on the left is a prize un-won
The candle unlit and a song unsung
Believing that love is a dreamers dream
The man on the left and me in-between

Lady Magdalene
I can hear your distant trumpet
Calling from the morning mountain
Singing to the passing river, take me home
Show me peaceful days before my youth has gone

The man in-between waits between the two
Not hearing the lie and not seeing the truth
Unknowing what is and denying what seems
And there he will sleep
The man in-between

Lady Magdalene
I can hear your distant trumpet
Calling from the morning mountain Make the sound of silent thunder
Calling from the lips of Abraham
Make a sound that we may wonder where we are
Take us to your soul for we have wandered far

The man on the right was a man undone
The man on the left like a prize un-won
And god only knows what their time will bring
Or what will become
Of the man in-between
