[00:01.02]Milow
[00:01.28]专辑：Coming of Age
[00:02.77]
[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...
