You take my love
You want my soul
I would be crazy to share your life
Why can't you see what I am
Sharpen the senses and turn the knife
Hurt me and you'll understand

I'll never be Maria Magdalena
(You're a creature of the night)
Maria Magdalena
(you're a victim of the fight)
(you need love)
Promise me delight
(You need love)

Why must I lie
Find alibis
When will you wake up and realize
I can't surrender to you
Play for affection and
Win the prize
I know those party games too

I'll never be Maria Magdalena
(You're a creature of the night)
Maria Magdalena
(you're a victim of the fight)
(you need love)
Promise me delight
(You need love)
