When God Is Not Watching

Within these hallowed halls
We work, we pray
Beneath these sacred arcs
I seek your eyes
Each day

Whenever I behold your smile
I burn with silent ecstasy
And I'm sensing that you feel alike
Whenever you glance back at me

And when the lonely nights
Descend on me
I shed despairing tears
No soul must ever see

For only when God is not watching
We can have the love we crave
And if they ever find you in my arms
We'll be united in an unmarked sinner's grave

But I promise I will bear the pain
The longing I'll endure for thee
A man cannot lie with another man
Except when our God is not watching... maybe
