[enchanting harp intro]
[soft rainfall]
[soprano sax solo]
[gentle young female vocals]
[Her] Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered,
I have fought my way here - to the castle - beyond the Goblin City - to take back the child that you have stolen.
For my will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom as great...
And my kingdom as great...
[tenor sax]
[him:] I was watching you perform
Such a talent you possess, your heart so warm.
All these wonders I see on your shelf
Why not take something for yourself?
Just a pretty glass sphere
That can make your wildest dreams appear...
[into]
(oooOOOooo) Nothing more than a wooden box
To build a world of dreams...
(oooOOOooo) To ask you what you want to be
And nothing's as it seems...
[verse 1]
[Goblin King]: Settle down and dry off, Sarah
(oooo) Send Lancelot away
I've got a special gift for you
A girl who's got SO much to say...
[sad saxophone rising]
[Sarah] ooooh I don't know what to say...
I feel so unfulfilled;
And nobody hears me...
Or feels what I feel
[chorus]
Oh drift off to this fantasy, my child
Let your imagination run so wild...
In 13 hours what could you see?
Imprisoned in the castle with me?
I offer everything!
Just let me be your king.
OOoooo - I'm terrified at the sight
My mind belongs to me.
My battle's mine to fight.
Because I don't yet know what to be (toby?)
(don't defy me, Sara)
(stand beside me, Sarah!)
[her] NO!
[pause]
[verse 2]
[her:] I've got to do this on my own - though I don't have the words.
I'll fight to have my own life, through the confusing and absurd.
[chorus]
Oh drift off to this fantasy, my child
Let your imagination run so wild...
In 13 hours what could you see?
Imprisoned in the castle with me?
I offer everything!
Just let me be your king
[verse 2]
I've got to struggle through - though I don't have the words.
I'll fight to have my own life, through the confusing and absurd.
Through all your tempting gifts
And twisting halls
I know I must resist
The labyrinth's pitfalls...
Your friends can't help you Sara
You WILL belong to me
The boy is mine, as are you, in time
I've got so many more illusions for you to see!
I've changed the world to build this dream
And all I've asked is that you be my queen...
[chorus]
Oh drift off to this fantasy, my child
Let your imagination run so wild...
In 13 hours what could you see?
Imprisoned in the castle with me?
Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered...
I have fought my way here - to the castle - beyond the goblin city...
For my will is as strong as yours... and my kingdom as great...
YOU HAVE NO POWER OVER ME!
[yelling:] YOU HAVE NO POWER OVER ME!
[epic sax solo]
[sax rhythm]
[female singer:] I've overcome and won my trials
Broke your spell and reconciled
In 13 hours what did I see?
The friends I made who carried me.
[jazz sax outro]
