Act 2. 1. Solo. Braid the raven hair lyrics
I've seen your face*
Inside my dreams
You're haunting me
[Lady Sophia:]
Your path in life has led you here:
To where you stand
I am the presence in your head,
Lighting the way
[Diegu:]
I recall your voice,
It soothed me all these years
Tell me what you are
Please tell me
Why I'm here - with you
[Lady Sophia:]
I am all of that
Which isn't shaped by its past
Now all you need, is what I'll be
Sophia - your friend
[Diegu:]
Many years ago...
I died of a disease
Someone has brought me back to life
Do I owe you my life?
[Lady Sophia:]
Look into my eyes
With tears they overflow
And you're my only hope
[Diegu:]
I see her fall onto her knees
My destiny's unveiled:
"The one who'll save us all"
[Lady Sophia:]
As the weight drops down
And his face turns white
He realizes:
[Diegu:]
I am all there is
And all this time...
How can I be he who'll save us all?
Why should I be the one?
This cannot be... no - this cannot be!
[Lady Sophia:]
Diegu - remember your death
You died... I brought you back to life
I ask you: please fulfill this task
Your path in life has led you here:
to where you stand
Now that your destiny's unveiled
Do what you can...
[Diegu:]
No matter what I say
This task will lead my way
Your world won't cease to be
This burden is fit for me -
so it seems...
[Lady Sophia:]
Look into my eyes
With tears they overflow
And you're my only hope
[Diegu:]
I see her fall onto her knees
My destiny's unveiled:
"The one who'll save us all"
[Lady Sophia:]
As the weight drops down
And his face turns white
He realizes:
[Diegu:]
I am all there is
[Lady Sophia:]
Oh... my Diegu, you I trust in
Oh... my Diegu, don't fail me
I've seen your face*
Inside my dreams
