Just speak from the heart—be honest.
You can do it!
You cast a spell on me
Not literally, obviously
But I feel, in summary
You and me
Are meant to be
Cause you put a hex on me
You didn’t do it to me, directly
I’m—I’m not blaming you, specifically
Just that, metaphorically
Shit...can someone help me?
I love it! You got this. Don’t lose your nerve.
I’m too excited
It’s hard to describe
I got a bull-in-a-china-shop vibe
Just breathe and take it slowly
Tell her you love her only
And she can—I’m thinking out loud, aren’t I?
It’s okay… just tell her what you want.
You rock my world
And I’m tellin ya Kate
You already know
I’m the perfect housemate
I’ve never been wary
Cause nothing is scary
I’m big and I’m hairy
And my head is on straight
Okay?
I have one question
From whence comes this confession?
Surely you know
I know so little of feeling
I’ve been so alone
It’s all that I’ve known
This idea you want more
Has left me quite reeling
What do I do now?
Chorus!
You’ve cast a spell on me
It’s a feeling that’s killing me
But let’s say, categorically
Oh Katie, it's just you and me
You’re doin’ great! Give it some confidence!
Remember, Katie
That I’ve got your back
If ever this tower
Was under attack
I’d hunt ‘em down
Like the old days
I’d chase ‘em down the hallways
But we could do it your way
I’m not some maniac
It seems you desire
A trial by fire?
You believe I require
A guard, just in case
I’m a Titan, you see
Such attackers would flee
With but one look at me
Terror on each face
You’re not terrifying!
They don’t know you like I do!
That’s not what she meant.
Hecate, please cast a spell on me!
To forget this whole embarrassing catastrophe
Underneath this bull-head’s fur’s a red-faced wannabe
Seriously, I’m freaking out, Grace
Somebody, please
Rescue me!
This is a disaster, Grace. Help me!
Hecate, if you don’t mind
I’ll take the floor
Because I feel obliged
To help this Minotaur
He’s a bit absurd
He gets stuck on a word
But he flies like a bird
When you walk in the door
Could the love of your life
Be right under your chin?
Well there’s no need to guess
He’s already moved in
Please understand, Grace
It’s not him I can’t face
My heart is a place
Difficult to admire
Hot coals at its core
Burned so many before
Yet he carries this torch
Unaware of the fire
Kate, will you dance with me?
I...
Oh, never mind!
Ya know, this isn’t the first time I've pretended to dance with you!
Ha ha ha, yes!
Twirl!
Who thought a bull
Could live under a shell?
I don’t need your answer
You know me too well
This love is my truth
And I know in my soul
That the magic in here
Is beyond our control
It’s true, there’s a part of me
That yearns for more
If I had my pick
It’d be you I adore
Not all is written
Powers greater than fate
Give meaning to what
The world puts on our plate
Yet, even so
This could all go astray
I wouldn’t have it any other way!
He’s bared his soul
So, what’s the debate?
Will you let him in
Before it’s too late?
Very well, Asterion. I accept your proposal.
Can you lead? I haven’t prepared for this.
My heart is a-shiver (You cast a spell on me)
So hard to describe
These feelings I feel
Coming up from inside
It’s unexpected (You cast a spell on me)
Barely know what to do
All this seemed impossible
Yet now it’s come true
I feel like our story’s
About to begin
Coming out of the shadows
Has changed everything
To you, Grace and Freddie
How do I thank you?
I think you just did!
You trod the path well.
Okay…?
You cast a spell on me
