DON'T TEMPT ME FATE

Viana and Oswan recall meeting seventeen years earlier, fighting
the Spanish Inquisition during the Portuguese War of Succession.
The burning in your eyes has set
my am’rous heart on fire
When in a distant land we met
and our hearts did conspire
to cast us in this part to see
if you and I were meant to be
and from behind these masks our eyes will...
Don’t tempt me Fate
Please don’t tell me what will be
I wish to believe that my choices set me free
I’ll have to wait
Don’t tempt me!
Together we fought side by side
against the rising tide
And though we have survived it all
you wound me with your eyes
Through this glass I darkly see
what is and what shall never be
but don’t reveal my heart to be empty
Don’t tempt me Fate
Please don’t tell me what will be
I wish to believe that my choices set me free
I’ll have to wait
Whisper to me secrets to be
only if my heart is not empty
To cast us in this part to see
if you and I were meant to be
and from behind these masks our eyes will...
Don’t tempt me Fate
Please don’t tell me what will be
I wish to believe that my choices set me free
I’ll have to wait
Don’t tempt me!© 2013 Theatrum Mundi
