Ave Maria

歌詞

What can I do Never before have I been untrue I've given my life No family or friends no children no wife I've asked no reward Just the work of our Lord Where can I go With every breath I fear for my soul God how I've tried To keep these passions locked up inside But now I confess To these sins of the flesh Esmerelda that gypsy that temptress has stolen my heart Here in a world where it's hard to believe A spell has been cast over me Tell me what can I do Ave Maria Pray for me in my moment of need Ave Maria How I hope tonight that you'll send your guiding light to me Look at this face All that I've known is fear and disgrace I yearn for love Mother of God look down from above And give me the words that speak only to her For all of my life I've been consumed By anger and spite Could you not see How the whole world reacted to me I pity the child Who has been so reviled But the moment she touched me I swear that my soul came alive And though I fear love never could be For her and someone like me I need to know Ave Maria Pray for all banished children of Eve Ave Maria How I hope tonight That you'll send your guiding light to me (Repeat chorus in duet)
