Finale (Paris)

[AENEAS, spoken]
Curse their evil magic

[PARIS, spoken]
We've been fooled Aeneas

[AENEAS, spoken]
We must take to the sea

[PARIS]
I don't believe it
Seems even the gods
Must be angry with me

[AENEAS]
All is lost, we got to escape
We must find the king before it’s too late

[PARIS]
No
First we must rally our forces
Try to drive them back
The gods will take our side
And surely they'll find who

[AENEAS]
The gods have deserted us, Paris
There's no turning back

[PARIS]
Damn them
[?] Aeneas
I must gathered the family
I'll follow behind
I must [?] them up from the slaughter

[HELEN]
But where can we shelter, Paris
We have no way to run

[PARIS]
Then we'll start again, quick

[PARIS, spoken]
Mother
Greeks have entered the city, mother
Oh no
Not this
Mother

[HECUBA]
We enter a fated of change in our nation
A sad farewell
A lost farewell

[PARIS, spoken]
Mother you can't stay here

[HECUBA]
I'll never leave my husband’s side
Though his dreams may have been [?]
My place is besides him

[PARIS, spoken]
But if you stay they'll

[HECUBA]
Don't let the love we fought for
For so long
That has taken my son and my husband
Take you too
We've never blamed you
We've always loved you

[PARIS]
Mother!
Come!

[ULYSSES]
Menelaus
[?]
He’s trying to escape

[MENELAUS, spoken]
Give me your bow

[PARIS]
Argh

[HELEN]
(spoken)
Paris
Oh no
Get up
Paris, please you can't die
Not now
After all that we've been through
(sung)
Say we’ll be together
Come hell or high water
Nothing gonna keep us apart

[PARIS]
I’ve never guaranteed happy endings
I love you

[HELEN, spoken]
And I'll always love you
Oh Paris

[PARIS]
Hold me now
I’ll be with you always
In my disguise
Hiding behind your eyes

[AGAMEMNON]
There he is
One last trophy for the victims of war
One last bit of business to even the score
For our dead
Let's take his head

[MENELAUS]
Don't make me kill you brother
Just how much blood must be shed for revenge
Are you inhuman or callously [?]
Our mission is won
And yet I have lost
For so many died
For the pride of a fool

I can't even find words to console her
I’ve killed the very man she loved
All because I was blind
I [?] too late
To extinguish this hate
Helen, if only I had know
If only I had known

[HELEN]
Menelaus
How I loved you so

[MENELAUS]
(spoken)
I know
Now I know
(sung)
Kings and queens aren’t allowed to be lonely
They live their lives for their followers only
But they have dreams and memories
And those who forgive them
Love them too

[HELEN]
Sleep now my love
We'll never part
You will always be in my heart
My prince
My strength
My life
My love
Love has power
Love has po - oh, Paris

[Chorus]
Love has power
Love has power
Enough to lift you up
Enough to drag you down

Love has power
Love has power
Enough to lift you up
Enough to drag you down
Trust in your heart

Love has power
Love has power (and to never [?])
Enough to lift you up (there are [?])
Enough to drag you down (but they are worth dying for)
Always remember

Love has power
Love has power
Enough to lift you up
Enough to drag you down
Never surrender
Always remember
Love has power
