Notre-Dame de Paris (english) 37. I`m a Priest (Daniel Lavoie)

Текст песни "Notre-Dame de Paris (english) — 37. I`m a Priest (Daniel Lavoie)"

I was a happy man,
Until I saw your face
I hid my need away
In some dark secret place
All that power of sex,
I kept down and I never let go
I had only one design
The truth of God and man to know

Oh, I'm a priest and I love this girl
I love with a love that destroys my world

Against the wind and the tide
I could stand any shock
Straight and proud
Like Notre dame upon her rock
Then you stole in my heart
And awakened desire
I dream I'm inside you
And I wake up on fire

Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
I love with a love that destroys my world

I let no woman near,
I suffered for God's care
In the heart of the night
I saw the lightning flare
I looked out from my room,
Distracted from my prayer
The day had just begun,
And you were standing there

Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
I love with a love that destroys my world

Heal me with your touch – or hurt me once again
Make me suffer for my sin
Just lead me on to Hell, and I'll deny my Christ
For Hell, with you, is Paradise

Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
I love with a love that destroys my world
Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
This girl
