I’m playing the seagull nun
I’m loving my god sublime
But tell me my dear old lord
How I got into this bind
I have been pushing the rock up the hill
He grinds me down like grist in the mill

Love grinds me down
Protecting hope
Worries and peace
I’ll never know

I know I should wander on
The river ain’t flowing right
But when he is here with me
I drink the drugged wine
He is my rock and my sun in the night
He is my breath, my blood oh, end of the line

Love grinds me down
Protecting hope
Worries and peace
I’ll never know
