The Priest Lyrics

I saw him in the church
With is white robe on
I always wondered why
His eyes were so dim
Walking down the aisle
Like his dog just died
And the whole damn world
Was weighing on himI'd see him walk home
Like a shadow of a man
Disappear for a while
Into a whiskey binge
Bottle in his right hand
And then he pulled the triggerHelp him help him please
He loves her but she doesn't know
He loves her but she doesn't knowWell the day she got back
He was halfway dead
But the look in her eyes
It brought him back again

He gave her all the letters
That he never could send
He forgot his vow
And told her everythingWell now I never see him
But I hear he's fine
He married that girl
And never thought twice
But if he couldn't have her
I know it would've killed himHelp him help him please
He loves her but she doesn't know
He loves her but she doesn't know
