Lyrics
Maggie's Rosary
Mick Sterling/Bruce McCabe)
Maggie lifts the silver chain gently resting on her dress
she lays it at the end of her bed and she falls like a willow
She will never be the same this is such an awful mess
Every word he ever said is another tear on her pillow
Chorus:
Shwe won't let you see her cry she won't let you in
the line between love and hate is very thin
She won't tell a soul he is all she needs
You'll just see another bead on Maggie's Rosary
Who do you tell your troubles to when your friend breaks your heart
Who's arms do you run to when your kiss has been betrayed
This world he made for you is the same world he tore apart
You know he'll never be true still you wish that he would stay
Chorus:
Most Wishes dont come true Maggie knows that for sure
Prayers to unanswered even if your heart is pure
Still under the candlelight she holds that precious stand
places on her neck what is out of her hands
Chorus:
