Joan awoke on the morning of the battle, she addressed the troops
She ate her breakfast & she said her prayers
She mounted her horse by standing on this stone
Here in the main street of this town
Centuries later, you can sit on this stone
You can find out from books which side of the street Joan walked on
But they don't answer the question that counts:
Why did Joan recant?
I guess if you're lucky you'll never find out
But you know you will
Sooner or later you'll come face to face w/ the answer;
When you turn a corner too quickly, or look around
So many times you've met the compa**ionate gaze of Christ
Now you see only yr own eyes looking back at you
