Brandon Flowers - Magdalena Lyrics
Please don't tell me I can't make it
It ain't gonna do me any good
And please don't offer me your modern methods
I'm fixing to carve this out of wood
There are 60 miles of sacred road
And the promises made to those who venture
San Francisco will lift your load
In the land of old Sonora
A shallow river valley cries
The summer left her without forgiveness
It's mirrored in her children's eyes
Prodigal sons and wayward daughters
Carry mandas that they might
And born again by candlelight
And born again by candlelight
Blisters on my feet, wooden rosary
I felt them in my pocket as I ran
A bullet in the night
A Federales' light
San Francisco, do you understand?
Tell him that I made the journey
And tell him that my heart is true
I’d like his blessing of forgiveness before the angels send it through
And I will know that I am clean now
And I will dance and the band will play
In the old out to cantina
Cause we’ll runneth over the ancient clay
And if I should fall to temptation when I return to evil throes
From Nogales to Magdalena
As a two time beggar
I will go where I know I can be forgiven
The broken heart of Mexico
The broken heart of Mexico
The broken heart of Mexico

Please don't tell me I can't make it
It ain't gonna do me any good
And please don't offer me your modern methods
I'm fixing to carve this out of wood
From Nogales to Magdalena
There are sixty miles of sacred road
And the promises made to those who venture
San Francisco will lift your load
In the land of old Sonora
A shallow river valley cries
The summer left her without forgiveness
It's mirrored in her children's eyes
Prodigal sons and wayward daughters
Carry mandas that they might
Be delivered from the depths of darkness
And born again by candlelight
And born again by candlelight
Blisters on my feet, wooden rosary
I felt them in my pocket as I ran
A bullet in the night
A Federales' light
San Francisco, do you understand?
Tell him that I made the journey
And tell him that my heart is true
I'd like his blessing of forgiveness before the angels send it through
And I will know that I am clean now
And I will dance and the band will play
In the old out to cantina
Cause we'll runneth over the ancient clay
And if I should fall to temptation when I return to evil throes
From Nogales to Magdalena
As a two time beggar
I will go where I know I can be forgiven
The broken heart of Mexico
The broken heart of Mexico
The broken heart of Mexico
The bass in this song is pure art!
I sure do love this song. I'm surprised at how much Roman Catholic imagery Brandon uses in this and other songs, whilst being Mormon.
This song is so faahriggin catchy.
Me encanta,canción dedicada al pueblo de mi papá,Magdalena de Kino,Sonora ! ❤️🌵🌝
Me acaba de llegar está canción por whatsapp y me siento orgullosa que alguien cante con tanta pasión a mi bello Sonora , me encantó la canción 😥😥😥
Am making the walk this year, in honor of Dr. Roy J. Nirschel, the President of Roger Williams University,
a magnificent man, and a great Christian who made numerous religious pilgrimages. He died with a
pure heart and I hope for the same!

I'm proud to hear this because i'm From Nogales, Sonora and we are Close to Magdalena
Been walking there for six years with a group of friends... first time I heard this song I love it! Just that we walk from Cananea not from Nogales.
Brandon Flowers is literally one of the only artist that in my opinion had a good solo career. Well... and Gerard Way.
WOOOOOO
YES
Brandon And Gerard are amazing
Are we the same person cos I have that exact opinion lmao
such a magnificent song.
A song with my nameee <3
esa cancion la ponían en cinemex
te amo Fernando
What software do you use to put the song over the image in the way you've done here ?
Dedicated to my walkers making their journey from Nogales to magdalena.
O'odham Trashboy kyc green go
My husband played this song for me when we were first dating and said if he ever had a daughter he wanted to name her Magdalena. He introduced me to the Killers and Brandon Flowers and I became a huge fan. Almost exactly one year after we first met, our daughter, Magdalena, was born.
Thank you!
+Alexandre Vilarinho Beautiful, Alexandre! Thank you for sharing. Our Magdalena is such an amazing blessing. Much love to your family.
+Michele Inclan Congrats, this song is for my town Magdalena de Kino Sonora Mexico, wonderful song
