[MEPHISTOPHELES] 



ALL OF YOUR LIFE NOW 

YOU HAVE DENIED 

THERE'D BE A TIME 

WHEN YOU'D EVER DIE 

STILL IT'S BEEN RUMORED THIS THING MUST BE 



WHY IS IT THEN THAT YOU ACT SURPRISED 

WHEN I APPEAR NOW TO BE YOUR GUIDE 

WHY DO YOU HESITATE TO FOLLOW ME 



SEE IT RISING 

STARE AND WONDER 

HEAR IT BECKON 

YOU TO DANCE 



FEEL IT HOLD YOU 

TAKE YOU UNDER 

I'M YOUR GOD OF SECOND CHANCE 



AND NOW YOU CLAIM YOU ARE NOT PREPARED 

SO MUCH TO DO YOU CAN NOT BE SPARED 

STILL YOUR ENTREATIES DEATH WILL NOT HEAR 



THE GRAVEYARD IS FILLED WITH IMPORTANT MEN 

WHO COULD NOT BE SPARED BUT WERE IN THE END 

AND SO I WHISPER NOW IN YOUR EAR 



SEE IT RISING 

STARE AND WONDER 

HEAR IT BECKON 

YOU TO DANCE 



FEEL IT HOLD YOU 

TAKE YOU UNDER 

I'M YOUR GOD OF SECOND CHANCE 



DOMINE 

DOMINE 

DOMINE 

DOMINE 

O DOMINE 

O DOMINE 

O DOMINE 

O DOMINE 



[The Devil then makes the composer an offer. If Beethoven will give him all his music, allowing Mephistopheles to wipe it from the memory of man, he will return his soul to him. Beethoven is overwhelmed by the situation. Fearing an eternity of damnation and torment he is desperate to reclaim his soul, but the thought of losing his music, his life's work, causes him to hesitate.] 



[Mephistopheles, sensing his confusion, offers to leave for one hour before returning for Beethoven's answer. As the devil is turning to go, Beethoven notices that the hands of the clock are now turning faster than is normal. When he points this out to Mephistopheles, the devil replies that the maestro should consider it a final favor because where Beethoven is going, they never turn at all.] 



[As the spirits cautiously re-emerge from the corners of the room, Beethoven agonizes over his decision.]
