LORD EDDARD STARK My good friend Robert was a fighter gone fat Back at Winterfell. He could wield a war hammer well; Made me look like a green boy. Kept from him secrets of the Tower of Joy. I was thinking what he now was all about. Wants me to be his “Hand! “No!” I wanted to shout. All he kept begging about was
Gory Haze, now his life’s a lie. Bloody Phase, the years might pass him by. Gory Days, Bloody Maze!
Bob had many girls he took to his bed. He said “Ned, don’t worry; I need not wed.” So he makes love. Robert grunts and sighs. I try not to judge my pal, but in My Stark eyes He is creating a den of lies And good-byes. I guess some men like “them” good times. I think the old gods will make him pay for his crimes. When he thinks of Lyanna dying, He chokes and then starts crying.
Gory Haze, now his life’s a lie. Bloody Phase, the years might pass him by. Gory Days, Bloody Maze!
Bob defined himself by the battle line. Now he seems so blind. I hate to tell him that he’s too old. The king may toss me into the cold. Once we soared as wards of Jon Arryn at the Vale. But our true love, well, on that boat did sail! I wish he was old Bob, but he’s gone and he can’t stand tall. He drinks alone in his cold, dark hall.
Glory Haze, now his life’s a lie. Bloody Phase, the years might pass him by. Gory Days, Bloody Maze!
Now I do not want to start a fight of might. If he wants to drink all day, his right, his fate. And I hope I never get fat and drunk because Our hour is late. Our fears we must not fake. So mind my word. I don’t know what to say? Get it together before time slips away. Bob never changed his ways, And I’m tired of the old stories of glory daze.
Glory Haze, now his life’s a lie. Bloody Phase, the years might pass him by. Gory Days, Bloody Maze!
Glory Haze, now his life’s a lie. Bloody Phase, the years might pass him by. Gory Days, Bloody Maze!
NOW SUNG BY LYANNA STARK AND PRINCE RHAEGAR TARYGARYAN AND NED STARK in lieu of COSSETTE AND MARIUS AND VALJEAN
LYANNA STARK I am changed All these feelings come on so fast It’s strange, What’s the matter with me, Lyanna? Your brothers left you too much alone. So many things unknown. I’m too much on my own.
He’s my love. And I have questions unanswered That somehow are wrong
He’s my love. The sigh of his faraway song And he sings Of dragons I long to see Not in reach Yet a breath away Waiting for me.
Is he really alive? To touch him is real Does he see what I saw? Does he feel what I feel?
With my love I’m no longer alone With a dragon in my life. He’s so near Rhaegar, find me know! Find me here!
NED STARK Dear Lya, You’re such a lovely girl. With a strong wolfish will. You seem so sad to me. Lyanna, if I had the power I’d fill each and every hour But you are the wolf, I see. Stuck with only me for company.
LYANNA STARK Very little do I know Of certain things I long to know. Of the woman I am Not the child long ago. Ned, you have nothing to say But my love you have known Why keep the secret to yourself? Why make me stay alone? So dark, so dark and deep All the secrets the Starks keep. In my time You give me all I want You are kind and tender and good. But dear Ned, dear Ned To you I am just a child Like a wolf running wild.
NED STARK No more talk of love No more talk. Let this love be dead. There are things You never heard. They are better unsaid.
LYANNA STARK But brother dear! I’m not a child! You hear? I demand the truth you know Of the time not long ago.
NED STARK You will learn. The truth comes in time. Given by the old gods In their own turn.
(Ned leaves the godswood and Lyanna is alone; spying through the wolfwood, Rhaegar Targaryan arrives.)
PRINCE RHAEGAR TARYGARYAN For my love, She sounds like the music I sing. She lights the sun. And my heart does stop. Our love cannot be over Before it’s scarcely begun. Lyanna, The gods in your wood have brought me here. Will she meet me here? She is so near That I fly like a Dragon in a world that is free.
LYANNA STARK (Unaware Rhaegar is eavesdropping) Every word Ned said is a dagger in me. For my love No one like my dragon, anywhere Anywhere, where he is. If he asked – I’d be his. In my life Rhaegar touches my life. I’m waiting here. I hope he’s near.
[Rhaegar sneaks into the Winterfell godswood to meet Lyanna Stark, who sits under the heart tree reading a book)
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN My heart’s full of love My heart’s full of song My words All sound Wrong I want to know your name? I’m so filled with shame. Dear Lady Stark? Won’t you say? Make my day?
LYANNA STARK My heart’s full of love. No fears, no tears.
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN I’m Prince Rhaegar Targaryen
LYANNA STARK I am Lyanna, or Lya
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN Lya, I don’t know how to say -
LYANNA STARK No! There is no way …
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN Make no sound
LYANNA STARK I am lost.
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN Now you’re found!
LYANNA STARK A heart full of light.
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN A bright night to light our way And you must never go away Dear Lya, Lya.
LYANNA STARK Ours is a vow We’ll never break.
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN I have a dream …
LYANNA STARK We’re both awake!
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN My heart’s full of love You are now mine to lose.
LYANNA STARK My heart’s full of you. Why dream of what cannot be?
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN Just one look and I knew
LYANNA STARK For me too. I saw you jousting too.
RHAEGAR TARGARYAN From today, you and me
LYANNA STARK Everyday, you and me.
BOTH LYANNA STARK and RHAEGAR TARGARYAN This isn’t a dream Our hearts full of love. We will find a way. After all, we feel this way: Our hearts full of love.
FEATURING LYANNA, SANSA, JON SNOW, ROBERT, RHAEGAR AND THEIR FALLEN COMRADES NED STARK Alone, I wait in darkness. I count the hours. Till I can sleep. In my dream Lyanna’s standing by. I made her weep To know I die. Alone, to the old gods I pray That on this my last day Please keep my children safe In your embrace In their case. Gods on high, Hear my prayer. I am ready For your care. I do dare. I am there. Let me see. Where I’ll be For eternity –a tree. Take me home. I want my home.
LYANNA My dear Ned, I bless your name.
NED STARK I’m ready, Lya.
LYANNA Brother, rest, all the same.
NED STARK This is my last of days
LYANNA You raised my Jon with love.
NED STARK He’s a man of the Watch
LYANNA The old gods will take you.
SANSA Father, what can I do? Father, I love you. They said you’d gone away!
NED STARK Sansa, my dear. Thank the gods you’re here. What a good day.
JON SNOW Father, please forgive me. I wanted you to see That I am living Because of all your giving. Dear Father, you are too good. Shall I carry you out to the godswood? I have been at the Wall An ice cliff so tall But I came home to you.
NED STARK Now you are here. Sit beside me. So I can die in peace. I have been blessed. Let me rest.
JON SNOW You will live! Father, you will live. I refuse to say good-bye.
NED STARK Jon, do not forbid me now to die. I ask Why? I can try. To the tree I send my last confession. I will see When I am finally sleeping. My short story Of your mother’s love for you. Lya gave her life for you. Then she gave you to my keeping.
LYANNA Come with me. Nightmares will never find you. All your regrets At last, Will be behind you. And to the old gods I pray for mercy.
NED STARK Forgive all my sins. Take me to my glory.
NED STARK, LYANNA, RHAEGAR, AND ROBERT Take our hand. We’ll lead you to the night land. Take our hearts, In which you are a part. And remember Our times at Winter-Fell We did dwell In a heaven Not a hell.
CHORUS OF ALL WHO DIED IN ROBERT’S REBELLION AND ON THE WALL Do you hear the North lords sing? Heading to the valley of the night. It is the singing in the trees Leading us into the light. On earth did we meet our end. Into the roots we’ll wend. The soul never lies. The dark night will end. And we will rise. We have laid down the sword In order to seek out The old gods and their reward.
Will you march in our parade? Will you join hands with me? Our lives have been made So in death we soon shall see. Do you hear the Children sing? Their shields a distant drum. It is our death they mean to bring, When salvation comes.
Will you come and join on up? Will you drink from my cup? Raise your glass; drink with me. A new world we soon will see. Do you hear the Children sing? Their shields a distant drum. It is our death they mean to bring, When salvation comes.
Be quiet and listen my son. I have a task that must be done. I speak from my heart. You must know your name. I have a story to tell Of love and shame That you alone must know. I never said before, You once dreamed of dragon lore. Now you need the truth. A story you must know Of fifteen years ago.
There lived a Prince TAR – GAR- Y –ON. He is the man who had the son. But shortened was his time. His early death a crime. Years ago He stole my sister’s heart. I could not keep them apart. The Starks I feared she might disgrace. Until I looked into her face. I could not order Rhaegar gone. So the Tower of Joy they moved on.
JON
Who am I?
NED STARK
You are Jon TAR – GAR- Y –ON
JON
I’m a dragon? What did I do? Are you still My father too? I don’t want this to be! I cannot believe…
NED STARK
I do not deceive I have kept my secret Listen to what I say Your parents’ hearts were full. This is the best way. “Promise me!” Did she say On her last day.
Look into my eyes, you will see what you mean to me. Search your heart, search your soul and when you find me there you’ll search no more.
Don’t tell me, it’s not worth tryin’ for. You can’t tell me, it’s not worth dyin’ for. You know it’s true. Everything I do, I do it for you.
Look into your heart, you will find there’s nothin’ there to hide. Take me as I am, take my life, I would give it all, I would sacrifice.
Don’t tell me it’s not worth fightin’ for. I can’t help it, there’s nothin’ I want more. You know it’s true. Everything I do, I do it for you, oh yeah.
There’s no love, like your love and no other could give more love. There’s nowhere, unless you’re there all the time, all the way yeah.
Look into your heart baby. Oh yeah.
Oh, you can’t tell me it’s not worth tryin’ for. I can’t help it, there’s nothin’ I want more.
Yeah I would fight for you. I’d lie for you. Walk the wire for you. Yeah I’d die for you.
You know it’s true. Everything I do, ohh, I do it for you
(Ned prays a song of the Children of the Forest, in a language long forgotten but remembered in the trees, in the truths buried in Winterfell.)
[ Ned sings]
Eleka nahmen nahmen Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen Eleka nahmen nahmen Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen
Let her blood not be spilled, Let it not fall like rain! When they beat her, Let her not be killed. Let her bones never speak
No matter how they try To destroy the Starks Never let them die! Never, ever let them die!
Eleka nahmen nahmen Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen Eleka nahmen nahmen Ah tum ah tum eleka: eleka:
What good is this magic? I don’t even know the Tongue I am speaking! I am imprisoned with no tricks to try!
Sansa? Where are you? Are you already dead and bleeding? My daughter is one more casualty For me to add to my generous supply:
No good deed goes unpunished No act of honor goes unresented No good deed goes unpunished
These are my new family words!
All my good intentions are like Words in the Wind! No good deed Goes unpunished!
Robert. Lyanna. Jon Aryn.. Sansa - My sweet Sansa!
All these bad dreams Haunt me and it hurts Too very much too ever mention. Was I really seeking HONOR? Or just admiration and attention? If these were my motives – When I look with my grey eye - If this is all my honor is – If my purposes are selfish - then Maybe that’s the reason why!
No good deed goes unpunished All helpful urges should be prevented. No good deed goes unpunished
(Speaks) This is ill done - So be it. Let all the Seven Kingdoms be agreed I’m a traitor through and through – If I cannot succeed, Sansa, in saving you, I do promise, ( song) “Winter is Coming” –
No good deed Will I attempt to do again! Ever again! No acts of honor Will I do again! Never Ever Again!
