Lo And Beholden Lyrics - Singles - Patty Smith

I was alone and content in my world 

Dancing on air 

You sent to me a message that said 

I like your styleWill you come to the temple tonightAnd dance for me thereI pledge to you all that you wishThe 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 beholdenOh 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 allThe 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 beholdenOh I'm beholden to you 

The royal word has passed 

The prophet's head is all I askFor beauty and the naked truth 

It will cost you
