1
I'm Peter van der Hold
2
I'm 68 years old
3
I doubt some questions have increased
4
In 42 years of being a priest
5
I'm at the end of my life
6
I'm not sure if I'm gonna survive
7
I often don't know what to say
8
When I talk to Him, when I pray
9
In reply I receive
10
Only silence, no relieve
11
I've waited in vain for a little advice
12
From that great voice in the therial skies
13
Once I was revolutionary
14
A devoted mercenary
15
A gifted student in God's hands
16
Now I'm old and sick of his demands
17
I tried to be honest and good
18
Did my job the best I could
19
But I always stayed that average man
20
Right in the spot where I'll be began
21
During the grieve with which I've dealt
22
Spent three decades since I've felt
23
The certainty I so have adored 'bout the existence of the Lord
24
I've seen enough, that's why I know
25
God left this place, long long time ago
26
I'll give him to my perish
27
Things I don't have myself but cherish
28
And namely love and charity
29
Mostly purpose that's what sets you free
30
So I'm where the metaphore
31
I'm not comforting anymore
32
I think I'm almost done with my search
33
Got old so fast even in my church
34
But feels as if I'm kept out
35
Some sort of secret about
36
The meaning of life sometimes
37
Can't fail to notice these are mediocre types
38
I've seen enough, that's why I know
39
God left this place, long long time ago
40
I've seen enough, that's why I know
41
God left this place, long long time ago
42
And time has made me good at one thing
43
And horrible at everything else
44
The blessings of a world divine
45
Were always elsewhere and never mine
46
Oh, I would like to hold someone
47
Briefly maybe have some fun
48
My body's hardly designed
49
So I'm not really the hugging kind
50
Not once has there been
51
Someone with a softer skin
52
Who reached out for me in the middle of the night
53
'Cause my own lumpy mattress would've turn on the light
54
I think I've been miscast
55
And the time of saints is passed
56
My faith is reclassed but not least
57
After 42 years of being a priest
58
The church is like a woman
59
Thing out of reach like a vision
60
She glimmers in the distance which I could never quite get
61
Now I've left you with my regret
62
I've seen enough, that's why I know
63
God left this place, long long time ago
64
I've seen enough, that's why I know
65
God left this place, long long time ago
66
I've seen enough, that's why I know
67
God left this place, long long time ago
68
I've seen enough, that's why I know
69
God left this place, long long time ago
70
It's my portion, it's my call...
71
It's my portion, it's my call...
