Seduction Lyrics

Seduction lyrics

EA: Queen Inanna, step into my room 



Shake off the darkness, shake off the gloom 



Have a seat, my dear, and talk a while 







Tell me, lady, what brings you here? 







INANNA: It's been so long, it feels like years 







EA: Oh, Inanna, it's good to see you smile 



Have a drink with me 







Come and feast at this table laden 



With foods of love that would tempt any maiden 







INANNA: Oh, Ea, I've always liked your style 



You know how to make me smile 







EA: Taste these fruits, accept these flowers 



I could talk to you for hours 



I would love to hear what's on your mind 







Have a cup of wine 







INANNA: I've been told that you possess directions 



To make a city realize perfection 







EA: Is that the reason, Inanna, that you've come here? 







INANNA: Would you be a dear? 







EA: Here is the crown, the staff and sceptre... 







INANNA: ...Have more wine, for it's as sweet as nectar 







EA: Lady, I'm already drunk upon your charms 



Come into my arms 







INANNA: And what is this? 







EA: It is the information 



Needed by the gods to raise a nation 



To such heights, that it before has never seen 







Are you from my dreams? 







This reveals the rites of temples 



Writing and the fundamentals 



Of music, and of art and masonry 



How to weave and work with metal 



Oh, your skin is like a petal.... 







INANNA: Oh, Ea, you're looking tired 



Come and lie with me beside the fire 



By the way, could you make a gift of this? 







EA: It's yours for just one kiss....
