Made some GREAT progress in today’s live songwriting session (number 33!) despite being very sleepy. Wrote more of melody and chords than lyrics, but here are the lyrics. Basically a few girls that got taken away were really upset, but Esther speaks boldly too about the times and chance and happenstance, basically foreshadowing the whole plot of the story, whilst earning Hegai’s favour and gaining likability amongst everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong>Welcome all women to Shushan
Now I will do the best I can
To take good care of you in your new home
and keep you safe and sound; you\u2019re not alone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I have been snatched away
from my home and there\u2019s nothing I could do or say
You took away my life
my hopes and dreams are lost in shadow<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I had so many plans
burnt up in flames
and you are to blame!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
a sword in your side
for things you denied!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>We\u2019re denied we\u2019re denied we\u2019re denied<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Some things just happen
And don\u2019t know when or why
Maybe it\u2019s circumstance
for us to say goodbye<\/p>\n\n\n\n
