He was lost to her body forever
It's not a dream anymore
Hallelujah, it's finally here
It's not a dream anymore
I've been waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting
For the soul of Brother John
It was on that day there would be a change
Hallelujah, temptation is here
She felt his eyes and she walked up beside him
Temptation is here
As she worked the time away
With her long black hair and her eyes of fire
Temptation is here
Temptation is here for Brother John
Hallelujah, it's finally here
To watch that girl, he would hide in the shadows
If you're there we will find out together"
And the Devil said, "There's a place in hell
Hallelujah, it's finally here
“I will meet you tonight at the monastery wall
In his bed in the heat of the night
And the Devil laughed and the angels cried
For the soul of Brother John"
He heard his name and he went to the window
I've been waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting
It's not a dream anymore
Temptation is here for Brother John
Hallelujah, temptation is here
And she took him by the hand,
Oh, the sins of the flesh are too much to deny
And a body to drive men crazy
In the world of Brother John, yeah
Would you like to be a man?”
Hallelujah, temptation is here
She said, "Brother John, it's so hard to be holy
Well, Brother John lay tossing and turning
Where she was in the clear moonlight
I've been waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting
