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 _____________________________________
