Dressed in rags and disguised as a beggar, Ulysses sneaks into Troy, using the ploy he got inspiration for from Paris years before. Upon crossing with Helen, he asks her for a solution to end the war, but she has no answers. The song reprises some lyrics from “Perfect stranger” when Helen had saved...
[ULYSSES]
You're looking well
[HELEN]
Pardon?
[ULYSSES]
Mistress Helen
[HELEN]
What do you want?
Can' you see I'm - ugh
[ULYSSES]
They're treatin' you kindly
I can see
[HELEN, spoken]
Oh, go away
[ULYSSES]
Please spare a few words for a beggar
Who is far from home
Tired and lost for an answer
Perhaps you can solve
How would that more [?]
Can this hopeless war be resolved
[HELEN]
I'm tired too, sir
I have no answers
But if blood were a currency
You'd be a rich man today
Who are you, sir?
[ULYSSES]
Just a stranger
[HELEN]
You're no beggar
Somehow I'm sure
I've seen you before
I have nothing at all left to say
[TROJAN, spoken]
Stay away from thе woman, beggar
[HELEN, spoken]
No, leave him
[TROJAN, spoken]
If you valuе your life
[HELEN]
He's just a stranger
He's no threat to me
Grant him his freedom to leave
(spoken)
He is nothing
(sung)
Just a stranger
Searching for answers
No mortal can give
(spoken)
Please
Let him live
