Xiphea - Part IV - A Little Magic

I couldn`t sleep at night
So worried deep inside
A challenge I will fail unless I will find a way to keep up the deception
What a spiteful plan! He knows I`m not a man
A swimming contest, yes
He intends to reveal my chest
And here we are he`s shouting:

What are you waiting for? Now take off your clothes
Let us begin
What are the odds?

I`m trying to gain time
I pray another line
A messenger will come
My chance and my only one
Once again he`s shouting:

What are you waiting for? Now take off your clothes
Let us begin
What are the odds? Why are you still not bare? Hurry up! Let`s go!
Can you not swim? Please tell me all!

I hear the crowd is laughing and so are you
I feel forlorn and desperate
What shall I do?
Let`s start to undress slowly
He cannot win like that

What are you waiting for? Now take off your clothes
Let us begin
What are the odds?
Why are you still not bare? Hurry up! Let`s go!
Can you not swim? Please tell me all

I have enough of this
Take your sword and fight! Fight me!
Let`s end a war, be home tonight
Our blades are clashing Oh, he is quick and skilled and stronger
But then he falls and I should kill him now

She couldn`t kill him so she left the scenery
When she arrived at home she cried her tears
The King was oh, so happy
He got his daughter back
As she confessed she failed him he wasn`t mad
Completely unexpected Prince Romualdo came
In peace and to surrender
He was ashamed
But Catherine took his hand and led him to his love,
Led him to the tower where she was
The masquerade was over
Both as who they were and both so much in love a fairytale
Two Kingdoms got united there was no longer war
It took a little magic… a little more
