Verse
Are you helpless?
Or are you free?
Can you stop this?
Aren’t you hungry?
Are you trying to fix this mess?
Tortoise versus the hare
Are you doing your best?
Can you hear me, Notre Dame?
Chorus
Our lady in waiting
(Our lady breathtaking)
Our lady debating
(Our lady is shaking)
Our lady still taking, forsaking, my time
Notre Dame
Verse
Do you feel us?
‘Cause we feel you
This is enough
Don’t conceal truth
Won’t let you fall from grace, we swear
Lioness fleeing her throne
Wouldn’t leave you there
But you left us, Notre Dame
Chorus
Our lady in waiting
(Our lady painstaking)
Our lady debating
(Our lady is unbreaking)
Our lady still taking, frustrating, our time
Notre Dame
Bridge
I’m so sorry that you’re burning
I wait like rain to drown your hurting
There’s a thorn in your paw, so what?
Pull with all of my strength, never give you up
But you gave up, Notre Dame
Chorus
Our lady in waiting
(Our lady mistaking)
Our lady debating
(Our lady is aching)
Our lady still taking, reclaiming, her time
Notre Dame
Our lady still taking, mosaicking, her time
Notre Dame
