Les paroles de la chanson
« I'm a priest »
Notre-Dame De Paris

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’ve stolen my heart and awakened desire
I dream I’m inside you and I wake up on fire

Oh, I’m a 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 a priest and I love this girl
I love, yes I love! With a love that destroys my world
Oh I’m a priest and I love this girl

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 a priest and I love this girl
I love, yes I love! With a love that destroys my world
Oh I’m a priest and I love this girl
This girl
