lyrics

Mary Magdalene
Just look at what you've done
You've left me here, you've gone away
Just to care for some holy one

Oh Maggie love of mine
It's just so hard to believe
After four long years together
You'd cause my heart to grieve

Oh forgive me love
For I find I wish him dead!
Though I know he's come to heal the world
He's wounded me instead!

I am the woman behind the woman
The woman behind the woman behind the man

Jesus Christ, my love
Why must you speak his name?
You and I built a life together
Long before he came

You used to sell yourself to men
I don't know which is worse to see
Now it seems as though you've sold your soul
And you give your body to him for free!

I am the woman behind the woman
The woman behind the woman behind the man

Mary Magdalene
History will give you a home
But I will be long forgotten
Not a footnote in the tome!
