| Once I stood alone so proud |
| Held myself above the crowd |
| And now I’m low on the ground |
| From here I look around to see |
| What avenues belong to me |
| I can’t tell what I’ve found |
| Now what would you have me do? |
| I ask you please |
| I wait to hear |
| The mother and the matador |
| The mystic, each were here before |
| Like me to stare you down |
| You appear without a face |
| Disappear but leave your trace |
| I feel your unseen frown |
| Now what would you have me do? |
| I ask you please |
| I wait to hear |
| Your voice |
| The word |
| You say |
| I wait |
| To see your sign |
| Would I |
| Obey? |
| I look for you in heathered moor |
| The desert and the ocean floor |
| How low does one heart go? |
| Looking for your fingerprints |
| I find them in coincidence |
| And make my faith to grow |
| Forgive me all my blindnesses |
| My weakness and unkindnesses |
| As yet unbending still |
| Struggling so hard to see |
| My fist against eternity |
| And will you break my will? |
| Now what would you have me do? |
| I ask you please |
| I wait to hear |
| Your voice |
| The word |
| You say |
| I wait |
| To see your sign |
| Would I |
| Obey? |
| Now what would you have me do? |
| I ask you, please |
| I wait to hear |
| Your voice |
| The word |
| You say |
| I wait |
| To see your sign |
| Could I |
| Obey? |
