(Smith/Kaye)
|
I was alone and content in my world
|
Dancing on air
|
You sent to me a message that said
|
I like your style
|
Will you come to the temple tonight
|
And dance for me there
|
I pledge to you all that you wish
|
The moon and the stars
|
|
Lo and beholden
|
Why don't you give it up
|
Lo and beholden Come on you know
|
it's true
|
Lo and beholden
|
Oh I'm beholden to you
|
|
In the palace there was wild reverie
|
And the look in your eyes
|
As I dropped veil after veil
|
Was drunken desire
|
The dove calls and God notes it all
|
The naked truth
|
Here is my veil the seventh and last
|
It will cost you
|
|
Lo and beholden
|
Why don't you give it up
|
Lo and beholden
|
Come on you know it's true
|
Lo and beholden
|
Oh I'm beholden to you
|
|
The royal word has passed
|
The prophet's head is all I ask
|
For beauty and the naked truth
|
It will cost you
|
|
Lo and beholden
|
Why don't you give it up
|
Lo and beholden
|
Come on you know it's true
|
Lo and beholden
|
Oh I'm beholden to you
|
