Jesus Christ Superstar movie - GETHSEMANE (I ONLY WANT TO SAY) lyrics
rate me<br>
JESUS <br>
<br>
I only want to say, <br>
If there is a way, <br>
Take this cup away from me<br>
For I don't want to taste its poison. <br>
Feel it burn me, <br>
I have changed. <br>
I'm not as sure, as when we started. <br>
Then, I was inspired. <br>
Now, I'm sad and tired. <br>
Listen, surely I've exceeded expectations, <br>
Tried for three years, seems like thirty. <br>
Could you ask as much from any other man?<br>
But if I die, <br>
See the saga through and do the things you ask of me, <br>
Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me, nail me to their tree. <br>
I'd want to know, I'd want to know, My God, <br>
I'd want to know, I'd want to know, My God, <br>
Want to see, I'd want to see, My God, <br>
Want to see, I'd want to see, My God, <br>
Why I should die. <br>
Would I be more noticed than I ever was before? <br>
Would the things I've said and done matter any more? <br>
I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord, <br>
Have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord, <br>
Have to see, I'd have to see, my Lord, <br>
Have to see, I'd have to see, my Lord, <br>
If I die what will be my reward? <br>
If I die what will be my reward? <br>
Have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord, <br>
I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord, <br>
Why should I die? Oh why should I die? <br>
Can you show me now that I would not be killed in vain? <br>
Show me just a little of your omnipresent brain. <br>
Show me there's a reason for your wanting me to die. <br>
You're far to keen and where and how, but not so hot on why. <br>
Alright, I'll die! <br>
Just watch me die! <br>
See how I die!<br>
Then I was inspired. <br>
Now, I'm sad and tired. <br>
After all, I've tried for three years, seems like ninety. <br>
Why then am I scared to finish what I started, <br>
What you started - I didn't start it. <br>
God, thy will is hard, <br>
But you hold every card. <br>
I will drink your cup of poison. <br>
Nail me to your cross and break me, <br>
Bleed me, beat me, <br>
Kill me. <br>
Take me, now! <br>
Before I change my mind.<br>
<br>
