[TELEMACHUS]
All my life, I
'd have died t
o meet you
Thought about
your name so m
uch it hurts
For twenty yea
rs I'd dreamt
of how I'd gre
et you
Oh, and now yo
u're here
I can't find t
he words
All my life I'
d have died to
know you
Days and night
s I wish that
I could show y
ou
For twenty yea
rs I never cou
ld outgrow you
Oh, and now yo
u're here
[Chorus]
I can't help b
ut wonder
What your worl
d must be
If we're like
each other
If I have your
strength in m
e
All this time
I've wondered
If you'd embra
ce me as your
own
Twenty years I
've wondered
For so long i
felt alone
[Verse]
[ODYSSEUS]
Oh my son, loo
k how much you
've grown
Oh my boy, the
sweetest joy
I've known
Twenty years a
go I held you
in my arms
How time has f
lown, oh
USed to say I'
d make the sto
rm clouds cry
for you
Used to say I'
d capture wind
and sky for y
ou
Held you in my
arms prepared
to die for yo
u, oh
How times has
flown
[Chorus]
I can only won
der
What your worl
d has been
Things you've
had to suffer
And the streng
th you hold wi
thin
All I've ever
wanted
Was to reunite
with my own
20 years we've
wandered
But today you'
re not alone
My son, I'm fi
nally home!

[ATHENA]
I can't help b
ut wonder
What this worl
d could be
If we held eac
hother with a
bit more empat
hy
I can't help b
ut feel like
I led you astr
ay
What if there'
s world where
we don't have
to live this w
ay?
[ODYSSEUS]
If that world
exists
It's far away
from here
It's one I'll
have to miss
For it's far b
eyond my years
You might live
forever
So you can mak
e it be
But I've got o
ne endeavor
