Magdelina lyrics

Awaiting my treasure drifting ashore
When from the galleys we re set free
And I ll never give you more
Than the time that we save
Magdelina I forgave
And I will feel everything
There are bridges burning here and we have to keep below
Lest the guns should overtake us and let out the final blow
A deserter I ll be hung, though every battle I have won
And I won t feel anything
Hey Magdelina, there is only now to lay aside
All the bad dreams of your past have been lost in the fire
Remember, soon I ll be back to bathe in your smile
And touch a long time indeed
