Lyrics
It's been five years since my ordination
oh, I was longing to spend them salvation
didn't know what you had in store for me
now you see me on my knees crying bitterly.
This is Father Thomas Lore
and I can't take it anymore.
You can't here me through the gospel cheer
You can't hear me through the chime
Oh Lord you ain't been down here
for a long long time
I entrusted Joan and Mike to you
now I hear his confession every month or two
while she's at home and drowning her grief
in her only hold - high-proof belief.
And there comes Joyce who lost her man
in an accident with a camping van
she says that you don't hear her pray
and i don't know what to say.
Refrain
I met Grace and Jack in a bar last night,
ever since their only child has died
they haven't been here in your church
don't you think we left them in the lurch?
There so many things I can't explain
too many faults causing too much pain
when I look up I see only sky
so this is my Good-Bye.
This was Father Thomas Lore
who couldn't take it anymore.
You won't here me through the gospel cheer
You won't hear me through the chime
Oh Lord you ain't been down here...
(repeat)
