Magdalene

(album: Could It Get Better Than This - 2021)

And I could wait around just a little bit longer
I'll be gone by the time of the end of this song
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene

Ok, I guess I'm a fool for hire
I know, I know I saw all the signs
It never is enough to be almost in love
And if we keep pretending then we're wasting our lives
So keep the shirts I left at your place
They'll do nothing for me now except dress me in pain
I know, I know that love is a game
But if I keep losing, I don't want to play

And I could wait around just a little bit longer
I'll be gone by the time of the end of this song
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene

And I could wait around just playing my part
Laughing at the tattoos left on my heart
I'm no good at good, I'm no good at goodbye
Oh Magdalene, why even try

And I could wait around just a little bit longer
I'll be fine by the time of the end of this song
So long to the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene
