Dance Of The Robe Lyrics

It's knowing what they want of me

That scares me

It's knowing having followed her

Must leave

It's knowing that each person there

Compares me to those in my past

Whom I now succeed

But how can whatever I do for them now

Be enough, be enough

Aida, Aida, all we ask of you

Is a lifetime of service, wisdom, courage

To ask more, would be selfish

But nothing less will do

Aida, Aida

Your robes should golden

Your robes should be perfect

Instead of this ragged concoction of thread

But may you be moved by it's desperate beautyOriginal Broadway Cast - Dance Of The Robe - http://motolyrics.com/original-broadway-cast/dance-of-the-robe-lyrics.html

To give us new life, for we'd rather be dead

Than live in the squaller and chain of the slave

To the dance, to the dance

Aida, Aida, all we ask of you

Is a lifetime of service, wisdom, courage

To ask more, would be selfish

But nothing less will do

Aida, Aida

(Dance break)

Aida, Aida, Aida, Aida, Aida

I know expectations are wild

And almost beyond my fulfillment

But they wont hear a word of abatement

Or sign of weakness

My loyal, un-passible duty is clear

But if I can rekindle our efforts it seems

It's enough, it's enough, it's enough, it's enough
