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
