Being Arthur. Songteksten.

2. Overture.

           

This is an overture

To paint a picture of the unknown.

You see? That’s what we’re heading for.

We lead, like legends do.

 

This is an overture

Of our reachable future.

We’ll stay for a while to show you the way

Like legends do.

 

This is a test-run, of what is to come.

So you’ll feel right at home

Going where you’ve never gone before,

Like legends have done, like legends have done.

 

This is an overture.

The characters are introduced.

Or are we nothing but actors?

Or fractions of the same legend? Yes, be confused, ‘cause-

 

This is an overture.

The expectations are set.

Let’s connect the dots as we go,

It’s not a legendary show yet.

 

(…)

Ah, the sound of romance,

With a touch of remorse.

A hint of inevitable grief

And forgiveness of course.

 

Empowering tunes

A sing along song

A feeling of belonging

That is ever so strong.

 

A discussion on the lyrics we sing

On what kind of story we ought to bring

On whether we rhyme on every little thing

A discussion on whether the king should sing or not.

 

Arthur:           Stop it! The king will sing! On with it now.

       

This is an overture.

The expectations are set.

Let’s connect the dots as we go,

It’s not a legendary show yet.
