Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Me & Magdalena
We're drivin' down south through Monterey
As the sun is slowly sinking
Into a distant ocean wave
And I don't know if I've ever loved any other
Half as much as I do in this light she's under
[Verse 2]
Tell me, Magdalena
What do you see in the depths of your night?
Do you see your long-lost father?
Does he hold you with the hands you remember as a child?
[Verse 3]
But know everything lost will be recovered
When you drift into the arms of the undiscovered
And I don't know if I've ever loved any other
Half as much as I do in this light she's under
[Verse 4]
Me & Magdalena
Always leaving early and sleeping late
Secluded in the canyon
Lost within a turn of fate
[Verse 5]
But know everything lost will be recovered
When you drift into the arms of the undiscovered
And I don't know if I've ever loved any other
Half as much as I do in this light she's under
