Brendon
Where'd you get that melody?
Joshua
I don't know
It came to me
As if I'd known it all along
Brendon
You have.
It's an old song.
A song of love from long ago
Long-time since I heard it though
Joshua
You've heard that melody before?
Brendon
Sure.
Joshua
Tell me more.
Brendon
Remember the tale I told you once about the Gods?
Joshua
Which ones?
Brendon
Nico and Jenna.
Remember how it used to be,
Their love that made the world go round?
Joshua
Yeah, I remember now,
But that was long ago.
Brendon
Tell it again though.
{Joshua tunes his lyre before playing.}
Joshua
King of shadows
King of shades
Nico was king of the underworld
But he fell in love with a beautiful lady
Who walked up above in her mother's green field
He fell in love with Jenna
Who was gathering flowers in the light of the sun
And soon he took her home to become his queen
Where the sun never shone
On anyone
Brendon
Go on...
Joshua
The lady loved him and the kingdom they shared
But without her above, not one flower would grow
So King Nico agreed that for half of each year
She would stay with him there in his world down below
But the other half, she could walk in the sun
And the sun, in turn, burned twice as bright
Where is where the seasons come from
And with them, the cycle
Of the seed and the sickle
And the lives of the people
And the birds in their flight
Brendon
Singing...
Joshua
La la la la la la la...
Brendon
Down below and up above...
Joshua
La la la la la la la...
Brendon
In harmony and rhythm,
Joshua
La la la la la la la...
Brendon
The Gods sang his song of love,
Joshua
La la la la la la la...
Brendon
And the world sang it with them,
But that was long ago
Before we were on this road
