What did I clearly say? |
|
Children should listen |
|
No, no, please! |
|
What were you not to do? |
|
Childrem must see- |
|
No! |
|
And learn |
|
Why could you not obey? |
|
Children should listen. |
|
What have I been to you? |
|
What would you have me be? |
|
Handsome like a prince? |
|
Ah, but I am old. |
|
I am ugly. |
|
I embarass you |
|
No! |
|
You are ashamed of me |
|
No! |
|
You are ashamed. |
|
You don't understand |
|
It was lonely atop that tower |
|
I was not company enough? |
|
I am no longer a child. I wish to see the world |
|
Don't you know what's out there in the world? |
|
Someone has to shield you from the world. |
|
Stay with me |
|
Princes wait there in the world, it's true. |
|
Princes, yes, but wolves and humans, too. |
|
Stay at home |
|
I am home |
|
Who out there could love you more than I? |
|
What out there that I cannot supply? |
|
Stay with me |
|
Stay with me, |
|
The world is dark and wild. |
|
Stay a child while you can be a child. |
|
With me. |
