Requiem Por Una Magdalena
Marta Quintero
Requiem for a Magdalene
Who has the keys
The gates of heaven
Who is the one who judges
The bad and the good (x4)
Hey woman tell me if you're not just routine
Your love has died and resides in a corner
The clock strikes two and your body shattered
It's that God and your heart
Have decided to make a deal
This life this Magdalene
Has paid with death
She wears the best dress for the occasion
Her purse and lipstick her greatest fortune
The lonely street and the old lamppost
The night called her daughter of the moon
The sparkle in her eyes made you feel
That there's no sweeter home
Than the backseat of a car
With lipstick and a sad crimson
You would be Cinderella queen of the night
Ia Ie Ia Ie Sana Turantu your queen
Ia Ie Ia Ie Sana Turantu your queen
Tell me, what am I doing at these gates of heaven
I'm an unhappy soul who never said I love you
I gave myself to the unfaithful only for money
I was never that woman who dies for a kiss
Tell me what I'm doing here at these gates of heaven
She wears the best dress for the occasion
Her purse and lipstick her greatest fortune
The lonely street and the old lamppost
The night called her daughter of the moon
The sparkle in her eyes made you feel
That there's no sweeter home
Than the backseat of a car
With lipstick and a sad crimson
You would be Cinderella queen of the night
The night is ending as the day begins to break
Through the sky walks the company of loneliness
And in the silence of that street her heels still echo
Distantly, and in the boarding house on Calle Pinto lie her dresses
In a closet, a prayer for the sinner, as Hell is waiting for her and this damn kingdom for the
Innocent who always uses her and washes his hands
She wears the best dress for the occasion
Her purse and lipstick her greatest fortune
The lonely street and the old lamppost
The night called her daughter of the moon
The sparkle in her eyes made you feel
That there's no sweeter home
Than the backseat of a car
With lipstick and a sad crimson
You would be Cinderella queen of the night
Who has the keys
The gates of heaven
Who is the one who judges
The bad and the good (x5)
