Patti Smith - Lo And Beholden lyrics

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
