[Chorus]
And I could wait around just a little bit longer
I’ll be gone by the time of the end of this song
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene

[Verse 1]
Ok, I guess I’m a fool for hire
I know, I know I saw all the signs
It never is enough to be almost in love
And if we keep pretending then we’re wasting our lives

[Verse 2]
So keep the shirts I left at your place
They’ll do nothing for me now except dress me in pain
I know, I know that love is a game
But if I keep losing, I don’t want to play

[Chorus]
And I could wait around just a little bit longer
I’ll be gone by the time of the end of this song
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene

[Verse 3]
And I could wait around just playing my part
Laughing at the tattoos left on my heart
I’m no good at good, I’m no good at goodbye
Oh Magdalene, why even try
[Chorus]
And I could wait around just a little bit longer
I’ll be fine by the time of the end of this song
So long to the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene
