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