| [00:04.71] | I'm Peter van der Hold |
| [00:07.46] | I'm 68 years old |
| [00:09.72] | |
| [00:10.73] | I doubt some questions have increased |
| [00:14.29] | In 42 years of being a priest |
| [00:17.99] | |
| [00:19.00] | I'm at the end of my life |
| [00:21.19] | |
| [00:21.94] | I'm not sure if I'm gonna survive |
| [00:25.03] | |
| [00:25.59] | I often don't know what to say |
| [00:29.60] | When I talk to Him, when I pray |
| [00:33.61] | |
| [00:34.49] | In reply I receive |
| [00:36.68] | |
| [00:37.62] | Only silence, no relieve |
| [00:40.06] | |
| [00:40.76] | I've waited in vain for a little advice |
| [00:44.60] | from that great voice in the therial skies |
| [00:48.42] | |
| [01:05.94] | Once I was revolutionary |
| [01:09.26] | A devoted mercenary |
| [01:12.26] | |
| [01:12.94] | A gifted student in God's hands |
| [01:16.38] | |
| [01:16.89] | Now I'm old and sick of his demands |
| [01:21.08] | |
| [01:22.21] | I tried to be honest and good |
| [01:24.77] | |
| [01:25.58] | Did my job the best I could |
| [01:27.91] | |
| [01:29.15] | But I always stayed that average man |
| [01:33.01] | Right in the spot where I'll be damned |
| [01:36.44] | |
| [01:38.31] | During the grieve with which I've dealt |
| [01:40.75] | |
| [01:41.68] | Spent three decades since I've felt |
| [01:44.59] | |
| [01:45.33] | The certainty I so adored 'bout the existence of the Lord |
| [01:52.96] | |
| [01:55.05] | I've seen enough, that's why I know |
| [02:00.44] | |
| [02:02.31] | God left this place, long long time ago |
| [02:07.89] | |
| [02:28.10] | I'll give him to my perish |
| [02:31.13] | |
| [02:31.68] | Things I don't have myself but cherish |
| [02:34.05] | |
| [02:35.30] | And namely love and charity |
| [02:38.44] | |
| [02:39.32] | Mostly purpose that's what sets you free |
| [02:43.72] | |
| [02:44.47] | So I'm where the metaphore |
| [02:46.54] | |
| [02:47.85] | I'm not comforting anymore |
| [02:50.93] | |
| [02:51.52] | I think I'm almost done with my search |
| [02:55.52] | Got old so fast even in my church |
| [02:59.76] | |
| [03:00.47] | But feels as if I'm kept out |
| [03:03.23] | |
| [03:04.24] | Some sort of secret about |
| [03:07.31] | |
| [03:08.18] | The meaning of live sometimes |
| [03:11.81] | Can't fail to notice these are mediocre types |
| [03:15.08] | |
| [03:17.26] | I've seen enough, that's why I know |
| [03:22.74] | |
| [03:24.43] | God left this place, long long time ago |
| [03:30.89] | |
| [03:32.13] | I've seen enough, that's why I know |
| [03:38.16] | |
| [03:39.80] | God left this place, long long time ago |
| [03:46.21] | |
| [03:48.89] | And time has made me good at one thing |
| [03:51.96] | |
| [03:52.59] | And horrible at everything else |
| [03:56.47] | The blessings of a world divine |
| [03:59.65] | |
| [04:00.16] | Were always elsewhere and never mine |
| [04:03.66] | |
| [04:05.22] | Oh, I would like to hold someone |
| [04:08.81] | Briefly maybe have some fun |
| [04:12.45] | My body's hardly designed |
| [04:15.94] | |
| [04:16.50] | So I'm not really the hugging kind |
| [04:20.14] | |
| [04:21.51] | Not once has there been |
| [04:23.83] | |
| [04:25.02] | Someone with a softer skin |
| [04:27.91] | |
| [04:28.59] | Who reached out for me in the middle of the night |
| [04:32.97] | 'Cause my own lumpy mattress would've turn on the light |
| [04:37.38] | |
| [04:38.19] | I think I've been miscast |
| [04:40.33] | |
| [04:41.70] | And the time of saints is passed |
| [04:44.53] | |
| [04:45.14] | My faith is reclassed but not least |
| [04:49.01] | After 42 years of being a priest |
| [04:53.77] | |
| [04:54.40] | The church is like a woman |
| [04:56.71] | |
| [04:57.96] | Thing out of reach like a vision |
| [05:00.41] | |
| [05:01.86] | She glimmers in the distance which I could never quite get |
| [05:05.87] | Now i'm stuck here with my regret |
| [05:09.13] | |
| [05:11.08] | I've seen enough, that's why I know |
| [05:16.52] | |
| [05:18.41] | God left this place, long long time ago |
| [05:24.21] | |
| [05:25.65] | I've seen enough, that's why I know |
| [05:31.59] | |
| [05:32.84] | God left this place, long long time ago |
| [05:39.54] | |
| [05:40.29] | I've seen enough, that's why I know |
| [05:46.38] | |
| [05:47.70] | God left this place, long long time ago |
| [05:54.16] | |
| [05:54.85] | I've seen enough, that's why I know |
| [06:00.62] | |
| [06:02.07] | God left this place, long long time ago |
| [06:09.17] | |
| [06:18.88] | It's my portion, it's my call... |
| [06:21.45] | |
| [06:22.38] | It's my portion, it's my call... |
