《The Priest (Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Priest -Milow

[00:00:11] I'm Peter van der Hold

[00:00:16] I'm 68 years old

[00:00:19] I doubt some questions have increased

[00:00:23] In 42 years of being a priest

[00:00:28] I'm at the end of my life

[00:00:31] I'm not sure if I'm gonna survive

[00:00:36] I often don't know what to say

[00:00:39] When I talk to Him, when I pray

[00:00:45] In reply I receive

[00:00:48] Only silence, no relief

[00:00:51] I've waited in vain for a little advice

[00:00:55] From that great voice in the ethereal skies

[00:01:17] Once I was revolutionary

[00:01:21] A devoted mercenary

[00:01:25] A gifted student in God's hands

[00:01:29] Now I'm old and sick of his demands

[00:01:34] I tried to be honest and good

[00:01:37] Did my job the best I could

[00:01:41] But I always stayed that average man

[00:01:45] Right in the spot where I'll began

[00:01:49] During the grief with which I've dealt

[00:01:53] Spent three decades since I've felt

[00:01:57] The certainty I so have thought 'bout the existence of the Lord

[00:02:06] I've seen enough, that's why I know

[00:02:13] God left this place, long long time ago

[00:02:30] I'll give him to my perish

[00:02:34] Things I don't have myself but cherish

[00:02:37] And namely love and charity

[00:02:41] Mostly purpose that's what sets you free

[00:02:46] So I'm where the metaphore

[00:02:50] I'm not comforting anymore

[00:02:53] I think I'm almost done with my search

[00:02:57] Got old so fast even in my church

[00:03:01] But feels as if I'm kept out

[00:03:06] Some sort of secret about

[00:03:10] The meaning of life sometimes

[00:03:14] Can't fail to notice these are mediocre types

[00:03:19] I've seen enough, that's why I know

[00:03:26] God left this place, long long time ago

[00:03:34] I've seen enough, that's why I know

[00:03:42] God left this place, long long time ago

[00:03:51] And time has made me good at one thing

[00:03:55] And horrible at everything else

[00:03:58] The blessings of a world divine

[00:04:02] Were always elsewhere and never mine

[00:04:06] Oh, I would like to hold someone

[00:04:10] Briefly maybe have some fun

[00:04:14] My body's hardly designed

[00:04:17] So I'm not really the hugging kind

[00:04:22] Not once has it been

[00:04:26] Someone with a softer skin

[00:04:29] Who reached out for me in the middle of the night

[00:04:33] 'Cause my own lumpy mattress would've turn on the light

[00:04:36] I think I've been miscast

[00:04:40] And the time of saints is passed

[00:04:45] My faith is reclassed but not least

[00:04:48] After 42 years of being a priest

[00:04:54] The church is like a woman

[00:04:57] Thing out of reach like a vision

[00:05:01] She glimmers in the distance which I could never quite get

[00:05:05] Now I've left you with my regret

[00:05:10] I've seen enough, that's why I know

[00:05:17] God left this place, long long time ago

[00:05:24] I've seen enough, that's why I know

[00:05:31] God left this place, long long time ago

[00:05:38] I've seen enough, that's why I know

[00:05:45] God left this place, long long time ago

[00:06:15] I've seen enough, that's why I know

[00:06:27] God left this place, long long time ago

[00:06:54] It's my portion, it's my call...

[00:07:48] It's my portion, it's my call...
