Boston - Magdalene Lyrics






I, I know I'm a dreamer
It's easy to see I want to be a believer
And fly right through the air
Now I'm wide awake
I want you to take me there
The things that you told me
I don't know if I was dreaming
And dreams aren't enough
Life is so lonely
I need someone to believe in
Are you in love?
Can't you see that's everything to me
That's enough

Magdalene, let me hear it said so I am sure
Answer me - can't you see that's all I'm waitin' for?
Here I am on my knees once more
Magdalene

Time must lead you somewhere
I don't want to wait
I know you can take me there

The way that you hold me
I don't know if I was dreaming
And dreams aren't enough
Life is so lonely
I need someone to believe in
Someone to love
Can't you see that's everything to me
That's enough

Magdalene let me hear it said so I am sure
Answer me - can't you see that's all I'm waiting for?
Here I am on my knees
Oh, I'm begging you please
Magdalene

Magdalene...
Magdalene...
Magdalene...

  17. C.... C....

    Song was about 10 years late. Imagine this coming out in the 80s

    C.... C....

    Corey Cooper it did. 1982.

    C.... C....

    @Doug N ? 1994 sir. You're thinking Hollyann from 3rd stage.

  18. D.... D....

    People here are completely crazy if they think the Hybrid Ice version is better . Boston takes the song to a whole new cosmic level. So awesome.

    D.... D....

    Boston is one of my favorite all time bands but the original from Hybrid Ice is much better. Better vocals and no organ overkill.

  19. S.... ....

    Tom Scholz run out of hot girl names?

  20. J.... D....

    Tom ,,,, you made me love keyboards !!!!! dreaming ,,,, someone ,,, that's enough ,,, ,,.... too good !

  23. J.... W....

    Boston at its best!
    Credits to Hybrid Ice too...

  24. S.... D....

    I like the continued Boston sound being a fan since childhood. Rtz and Orion the Hunter held me over til more songs came along. Brad s lives on!

  25. C.... A....

    In case anyone is interested....This song was originally written by a local boys band from Williamsport, Pennsylvania. The name of that group is Hybrid Ice. Their original version is on You tube also. Boston did a little re arrangement to make this ballad their own. Have a listen to the original and compare. I love what Boston did with it. However being one who grew up around Hybrid Ice i guess i am still partial to the original.

    C.... A....

    Hybrid Ice!!!! Yes, Thanks! The name of this band and this song has been driving me crazy for a long time now! I remember!!!!

    C.... A....

    I didn’t know it until just now.

    C.... A....

    Indeed
    my aunt dated one of the Hybrid Ice boys for a bit

    C.... A....

    Hybrid Ice was great!!! "Frosty the coke man" was a fun little track I remember😂😂😂😂

    C.... A....

    Hybrid Ice is from my hometown: Danville, Pennsylvania.

  26. T.... 1....

    1:38 my favorite part

    T.... 1....

    Mine too!

    T.... 1....

    totally I agree!

    T.... 1....

    SmolderingSheep nothing better than the keyboard and Tom's legendary guitar!

    T.... 1....

    Exquisite music.

  27. N.... T....

    M A S T E R P I E C E .......POINT!

  28. D.... 3....

    despite the name, I always thought this song was called "magdalence"

  29. e.... ....

    Boston! Period, End of Story!!!

  30. R.... S....

    Say, I wonder if Magdalene ever met Amanda and Hollyann also Marianne.Bills Lopez... Maybe thats too far back?

  31. B.... L....

    Say, I wonder if Magdalene ever met Amanda and Hollyann

    B.... L....

    Billis Lopez they did , vicious katt fight everybody fucked around and was naked😂

    B.... L....

    My wife’s full name is actually Amanda Magdalene Hollyann.

    B.... L....

    Or Joanne off Orion the Hunter.

    B.... L....

    they would be jealousy of the other two. Life is that when you're talented like the guys conformed The Boston Band.
    RIP Brad and the drummer which name I just forgot.

    B.... L....

    Billis Lopez or Marianne

  32. M.... ....

    Awesome song , ranks up there with Amanda !!! This has to be a HARD song to sing....

  33. r.... ....

    Love Boston but Hybrid Ice original version is better.

    r.... ....

    Taking nothing away from the excellent original from hybrid ice. I think Boston took it and blew it into another dimension. I wonder what the fellas from hybrid think of it. ?

    r.... ....

    spearhead787 I agree. I just heard the Hybrid Ice version, which is very nice. Boston has much more at their disposal...genius control freak OCD Tom Sholz, more money, more access to better equipment, to name a few. I think they elevated it significantly. But hey, I found a new awesome band this morning. 😎

  34. r.... f....

    ,,No 3 people are Brad Delp !!..at least they have not proved it yet!!!

  35. B.... A....

    Sounds ok, Yes, Hybrid Ice does a great job of their own version. Sounding like Styx not quite...have to see them in person I did many times. Saw Boston too when they first started. Bostons version is Boston style and Hybrid Ice has it's own Style too. Both great!

    B.... A....

    @Bill A Personally I think the song sucks, but it sucks less when Boston sings it.

  36. T.... S....

    Let the record show. I enjoy Boston. I really do but I prefer the original version of the song. Shout out to Hybrid Ice.

  37. R.... ....

    who on vocals, is that shit ass fran cosmo?

    R.... ....

    Cosmo sure isn't Delp, but I'd gladly have him back on the next album if Tom ditches the robo drums, does some collaboration with the band , and puts out an album more like this and not a over polished demo/rehash!

    R.... ....

    scholtz is a buck toothed control freak. Fuck him, he shit on the dudes that made that sound he takes credit for

    R.... ....

    +RTHA300 fran was cool; tom, yea he's an asshole. i really like his music tho

    R.... ....

    +Common Rabble I agree another album like walk on would be great! But I don't see Fran coming back

    R.... ....

    This is a very difficult song to sing and, IMO, Fran absolutely nailed it!

  38. B.... S....

    Rest in peace Brad Delp....God bless you soooooo xoxoxxx

    B.... S....

    Brash Sassy this isn’t Delp

    B.... S....

    Brad Delp was amazing, but i cant imagine anyone doing better than Fran Cosmo did on this record. His smokey voice just hit the nail on the head for the vibe of this album

  39. k.... ....

    OMG this version suck! Hybrid Ice's version is sooooo much better!!

    k.... ....

    @SaxyDan54 The Monkees suck ass, no thanks.

    k.... ....

    welcome my friends... to the internet...

    k.... ....

    @Tyler Lang LOL. Right you are, Tyler.

    k.... ....

    I prefer Boston's version myself.

    k.... ....

    loved boston but hybrid ice much better

  40. r.... ....

    I like it better than Amanda myself

    r.... ....

    Amanda HollyAnn Magdalene.... all great Boston ballads

    r.... ....

    Like what's your name better

  41. T.... L....

    Fuck you YouTube. I can`t listen to a full album without a fucking ad in the middle of the fucking album. I have to choose to the songs manually. FUCK YOU YOUTUBE, GO DIE IN HELL

    T.... L....

    have you tried adblock? It should fix that problem.

    T.... L....

    @Brian Cantrell
     Sure does man...sure does.

    T.... L....

    and have you tried the new commercials that are made to punnish you for using addblock, by forcing you to see a 20-30seconds long commercial..?!?? ..and u cant do a thing to stop it!

    T.... L....

    @Sir Aser
    I've been using adblock for years, and i've never had that problem.

    T.... L....

    Tim Linur lol i guess thats what happens when we dont buy it fairly and want it for free

  42. L.... S....

    TY4SHARING <3

  43. p.... 1....

    I like this better than Amanda!!!

    p.... 1....

    +mr percy respectfully,....you must be nuts...in a good way.

    p.... 1....

    I like this better than Amanda, and I like Amanda so much better than Justin Biever

  44. d.... ....

    The synth part in the beginning gives me chills. It's so awesome.

    d.... ....

    That's an organ.  They will not use synthesizers.  Don't believe me?  Look it up. 

    d.... ....

    @Devin Sykes Yep a real B3! 

    d.... ....

    @Devin Sykes a Hammond b organ IF i'm not mistaken, they definitely have their own unique ORIGINAL sound, that they do xoxoxxx RoCK on BoSToN fans

    d.... ....

    Omgosh, Tom Scholz would crap if he saw this!!! He NEVER, EVER used synthesizers!!! An MIT grad who mastered recording, music and creating new sounds on guitars through his invention the Rockman!! Look it up!!!

  45. s.... ....

    This song has been in my head for the past few days. :)

  46. C.... H....

    Was just listening to Brad when he sang for RTZ. Always and forever awesome!

  47. b.... ....

    2 beiber fans--douche fucks!!!!--assholes---BOSTON ROCKS---

  48. T.... ....

    I have listened to both. I prefer the lyrics of the Hybrid Ice version but really like the sound of the Boston version.

  49. T.... C....

    Actually this song was altered structuraly and verse wise from a band from Lancaster, PA. called Hybrid Ice. They actually wrote and recorded the song years earlier and then sold it to Tom Sholz. And actually, I hate to say this, but it blows Boston's version out of the water hands down, even as much as I LOVE Boston. Here is Hybrid Ice's version...

    T.... C....

    Hybrid Ice was from Danville, PA. They had the distinction of being the "worlds most famous unsigned band".

  50. c.... ....

    Take it back douche

  51. T.... S....

    A million angry Boston fans are going to flame you off Youtube, just saying.

  52. E.... ....

    please upload a better version! :)

  53. C.... ....

    do u see a dislike bar? this is what ALL boston songs deserve. 0 dislikes.

  54. S.... L....

    anybody have guitar tabs for this song? i cant find them anywhere

  55. C.... B....

    @Vmartin70EZ dudee i know the guy who wrote it. he used to live around the corner from me when i was a kid. go on google and type in hybrid ice. they have their song lists on it! there is my proof!

  56. V.... M....

    @CheyChey2016 What you're nuts dude! the burden falls on you to provide proof of what you are saying ! if you got no proof then shut up cause you're a hater!

  57. C.... B....

    @classiccarguy93 this isnt bostons song..the bought it from hybride ice..rusty folke wrote it and the band he was in sold it to him..they are a bar band and carnival band..look them up on here

  58. R.... ....

    geniales

  59. b.... ....

    Wow. I've had this album for almost 20 years and still sounds fresh and new. That is a sign of real music.

  60. S.... ....

    @jokerstormylover Sorry mis-read it.

  61. T.... ....

    @NesMax put anything through a rockman and you get something amazing- yep that's tom alright :) :)

  62. j.... ....

    I'm a huge Boston fan, but I prefer Hybrid Ice's original version. It conveys the message and emotion much better. Being from the same area, and having heard them many times, I think Hybrid ice should have gone much farther. Their CDs "Hybrid Ice", "No Rules", and their latest release "Minds Eye" are all excellent! If you are a fan of arena rock, you should seriously buy Hybrid Ice CDs.

  63. r.... ....

    just read all this, never heard of hybrid ice...wow, they are good, im a die hard boston fan and will always love them the most but hybrid ice has it goin on!

  64. f.... ....

    @lennymo36 Don't get me wrong, I love Boston. They do some of my favorite songs ever. Just in this case, I like the original. I just like the arrangement better. Although, I do have to admit, having seen Hybrid Ice many times, it could just be that I am more familiar/comfortable with their version.

  65. l.... m....

    @flyerfan2316 your opinion , frans voice is better and hybrid doesnt have those kinda guitars

  66. l.... m....

    fran singin it so smooth with those layered guitars....... most under rated song on this album

  67. r.... ....

    This is very good but the Hybrid Ice version is even better.

  68. C.... B....

    Hybride ice is wayy better...rusty did it better

  69. N.... A....

    BEST OF BEST

  70. J.... H....

    I named my daughter after this song. I never knew it was a semi-remake. I just heard the Hybrid Ice version for the first time. Both are good but I prefer this version.

  71. f.... ....

    This is a good song, but I have to say that the original, by Hybrid Ice, whom Boston bought this song from, is way better.

  72. g.... ....

    One of my favs ftom this album! THANX!
