Neil Diamond - Lady Magdelene lyrics

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 unwon

A candle unlit and a song unsung.

Believing that love is a dreamer's dream,

The man on the left the man in between.

Lady Magdelene

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 true.

Unknowing what is, and denying what seems

and there he will sleep

the man in between.

Lady Magdelene

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.

Lady Magdelene

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 unwon.

And God only knows what their time will bring

or what will become

of the man in between.
