Lyrics

Satan:
It 's all too easy, it's time to make a stand
I can lead you to the Promised Land
Where milk and honey grows on trees
So step right up and you can do what you please

Eve:
Take my hand lead me where you will
And I will follow, I'm following you still, home..going home

Satan:
But It 's all changed, in mysterious ways
It 's all so different to the early days

Eve:
Take my hand lead me where you will
And I will follow, I'm following you still, home..going home

Notes
Here we see the Devil trying to sell Eden to Eve. The ultimate Estate Agent! But even he (old Nick) is becoming weary of the old seduction by power trick and bemoans this. Eve passively (in this case) accepts her fate (and our fate).

This scene translates into a more pastoral intrumental duet between strings (Cello, Violin) and Flute.
