The Confrontation

(album: The Hunchback Of Notre Dame - 1996)

Are you insane what on earth are you trying to do
Destroy the place that has always protected you
Within the walls of this church you have found sanctity
You're as mad as can be

Father please I believe in her innocence
To be born who she is, is her one offense
We must keep and protect her by law and decree
This is sanctuary

You're a fool if you think you can win
There's no truth to forgiveness of sin
No mercy is waiting for all your good deeds

Can it be that my mind is confused
You are the man who has never refused
To give comfort and help to all those who need
Father please

I took you in when the world turned its back on you
Prayed for the grace of the saints that you'd make it through
When you'd stumble and fall it was I who would bleed
How can you do this to me

Father please my whole life has been you
Cast me out if that's what you must do
But don't harm the girl I'm begging you please

This gypsy tramp has you under her spell
Don't be fooled she's a vixen from hell
As long as I breathe she will never go free
Repent!
Repent!
Repent!

Sanctuary, sanctuary

You are the man that night in the woods
I remember the sound of your voice
And the touch of your hood

You can say what you want to say

All of this time

But you are the one to blame

You were the one

For making the blood of our Lord run cold in my veins

You are insane
As long as I live

You leave her alone

You'll never be free

Gypsy Witch

Please let her go free

Since you are the murderer

Sorceress

If you try to harm her

Now you must kill me

Can't you see that I loved you, why not just kill me

First you must kill me
