Lyrics
Marie-Madeleine, y’a pas si longtemps
Souviens-toi de tes amours
Je t’amusais bien, tu aimais l’argent
Et moi, je t’aimais tout court
Qu’est-ce qui t’a pris de tout laisser
De tout quitter pour un seul homme?
Un faux prophète, un illuminé
Un soi-disant roi sans couronne
Soi-disant roi de Galilée
Marie-Madeleine, y’a pas si longtemps
Quand tu n'étais pas fidèle
Tu n’es plus à moi, mais qu’est-ce qu’il te prend?
On n'épouse pas le ciel
Tu n’as plus rien à espérer
Il a déjà un pied en terre
Oublie ce fou, il t’a trompée
Le Roi des Juifs ne peut rien faire
Le Roi des Juifs est condamné
Redeviens Marie-Madeleine
Ne va pas chercher si loin
Je n’ai plus rien, Marie-Madeleine
Revis, reviens!
C’est à moi que tu appartiens
Tu attends qui? Tu attends quoi?
Redescends sur terre, j’ai besoin de toi
Marie-Madeleine, qui aurait cru
Qu’un jour on te verrait pleurer?
Mais qu’est-ce qu’il t’a fait?
Qu’est-ce qu’il a de plus?
Il a dû t’ensorceler
Moi aussi, je sais pardonner
Et je sais faire des prières
Je suis venu te supplier
Qu’il vienne me jeter la pierre
Celui qui n’a jamais aimé
Redeviens Marie-Madeleine
Ne va pas chercher si loin
Je n’ai plus rien, Marie-Madeleine
Revis, reviens!
C’est à moi que tu appartiens
Tu attends qui? Tu attends quoi?
Redescends sur terre, j’ai besoin de toi
Revis, reviens! C’est à moi que tu appartiens
Tu attends qui? Tu attends quoi?
Redescends sur terre, j’ai besoin de toi
Revis, Marie-Madeleine
Reviens, Marie-Madeleine
Revis, Marie-Madeleine…
Lyrics translation
Marie-Madeleine, not so long ago
Remember your love
I used to amuse you, you liked money
And I loved you very much
What took you so long to leave everything
To leave everything for one man?
A false prophet, an enlightened one
A so-called king without a crown
So-called King of Galilee
Marie-Madeleine, not so long ago
When you weren't faithful
You're not mine anymore, but what's the matter with you?
We don't marry heaven
You have nothing left to hope for
He already has a foot in the ground.
Forget that fool, he cheated on you
The King of the Jews can do nothing
The King of the Jews is condemned
Marie-Madeleine Again
Don't go looking so far
I have nothing left, Marie-Madeleine
Revis, come back!
You belong to me
Who are you waiting for? What are you waiting for?
Come back to earth, I need you
Marie-Madeleine, who would have believed
That one day you'd be seen crying?
But what did he do to you?
What else does he have?
He must have bewitched you.
I too can forgive
And I know how to pray
I came to beg you
Let him come throw the stone at me
The one who never loved
Marie-Madeleine Again
Don't go looking so far
I have nothing left, Marie-Madeleine
Revis, come back!
You belong to me
Who are you waiting for? What are you waiting for?
Come back to earth, I need you
Revis, come back! You belong to me
Who are you waiting for? What are you waiting for?
Come back to earth, I need you
Revis, Marie-Madeleine
Come Back, Marie-Madeleine
Revis, Marie-Madeleine…
