Dance Of The Robe Songtext / Lyric

It's knowing what they want of me that scares me

It's knowing having followed I must lead

It's knowing that each person here compares me

To the one who has always willed me to succeed

But if I'm only half the woman she was

It's enough, it's 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



It's knowing that the robe was worn before you

By one who gave us more than we dared ask

That surely will inspire you, reassure you

Its beauty is our love, its weight your task

I know that you'll be everything that she was

To the dance, to the dance
