When will you rise and show me the way
I need you now in my uncertainty
I need your strength to face the new day
Swept off my feet by life's sweet mystery
Sometimes it's hard just getting along
I know you're there. Why won't you come to me?
Dance with me, sweet inspiration
Seems to me only you know how
Dance with me, oh, dance with me
Share my fantasy just for now
Dance with me, sweet inspiration
Seems to me only you know how
Dance with me, oh, dance with me
Share my fantasy just for now
Inspiration's gonna rise again
Gonna take me by surprise again
You'll see the light in my eyes again
Inspiration's gonna rise again...
