Oh I've got to say you make Solomon's ashes
Dance from the grave with your beauty and grace
Oh I've got to say I am constantly shaking
Like waves from the sea I am moved by your faith
Oh I've got to say
Don't take for granted what you got honey, rock honey
You are the heiress to my throne
Strong enough to be a king's lady, please baby
Don't leave me standing here alone
Oh I've got to say I am constantly shaking
Like waves from the sea I am moved by your faith
Oh I've got to say you make Solomon's ashes
Dance from the grave with your beauty and grace
Oh I've got to say
Oh I can't stop but I can pay for it, pray for it
I unaware of what I know
You're like the secret never told darling, go darling
You shake the ground I'm standing on
Oh I've got to say I am constantly shaking
Like waves from the sea I am moved by your faith
Oh I've got to say you make Solomon's ashes
Dance from the grave with your beauty and grace
Oh I've got to say
I've got to say
Oh I've got to say I am constantly shaking
Like waves from the sea I am moved by your faith
Oh I've got to say you make Solomon's ashes
Dance from the grave with your beauty and grace
Oh I've got to say
I've got to say
