Overcome by your moving temple
|
||
|
|
Overcome by this holiest of altars
|
||
|
|
So pure, so rare,
|
||
|
|
To witness such an unearthly goddess
|
||
|
|
That I've lost my self-control
|
||
|
|
Beyond compelled to throw this dollar
|
||
|
|
Down before your
|
||
|
|
Holiest of altars
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem
|
||
|
|
A dollar at a time
|
||
|
|
For one chance, one kiss,
|
||
|
|
One taste of you, my Magdalena
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I bear witness to this place,
|
||
|
|
This prayer, so long forgotten
|
||
|
|
So pure, so rare
|
||
|
|
To witness such an unearthly goddess
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem
|
||
|
|
A dollar at a time
|
||
|
|
For one chance, one kiss,
|
||
|
|
One taste of you, my black Madonna
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem
|
||
|
|
A dollar at a time
|
||
|
|
For one taste, one taste,
|
||
|
|
One taste of you, my Magdalena
|
