Ayreon, Tom Baker, Paul Manzi, Amanda Somerville, Joost van den Broek - Henry's Plot lyrics

Henry and Lavinia contrive to meet in secret
To discuss their sinister plan
The guilty eyes of the two conspirators
Can scarcely meet
As they sense that something terrible
Is about to be revealed
From within the inky depths of
Lavinia’s crystal ball

The time has come no turning back
Vengeance is at hand

You must be brave with heart of stone
Come close hear my plan

Plant the seed twist the truth
He came to you that night

And told you that he yearns for her
In the afterlife he wait's tonight

I understand it must be done
I’m sure that we are right

Her guilty words still resonate
Like echoes in my mind
I’m well aware a fortune await's
Passed on by right of birth

But dreams of wealth her legacy
Is not where my motive lies
Not the reason why

Although it does help
