J. Sylvan - Adoni

{JONATHAN}
I’ve never seen anyone take up and wield
A stone that then took down a giant
Standing near naked
Without a shield
Yet so absolutely defiant

Here, take my cloak
You have to be cold
Have you… borne the blade of a man?
I’d be glad – honored, that is – if you’d hold
My armor and sword in your hand
Here’s my bow

{DAVID}
Adoni

{JONATHAN}
Here’s my tent
Come with me

{DAVID}
Adoni

I cannot say no to you
You are my lord
Whatever you wish I will do

{JONATHAN}
If you don’t want to –

{DAVID}
That’s not what I said

{JONATHAN}
I leave the decision to you
Alone you defeated a great enemy
That no one among us could kill
If anything, I should be bending my knee
And begging for whims of your will

{DAVID}
Stand up please

{JONATHAN}
You look good from down here

{DAVID}
Adoni

{JONATHAN}
I mean, my cloak, it suits you

{DAVID}
I’m no lord

{JONATHAN}
Well, how should we –

{DAVID}
Adoni
I’ll carry your cloak
Your sword and your shield
Now take off your tunic and belt

{JONATHAN}
I’ll give you my everything
Nothing concealed

{DAVID}
Now lie on the place where you knelt
Love can’t help us, really

{JONATHAN}
It won’t stop these wars

{DAVID}
I’m not here for easy release

{JONATHAN}
I think that my soul could get bound up with yours
And maybe

{BOTH}
Between us

{DAVID}
Some peace

{JONATHAN}
Go slowly

{DAVID}
Adoni

{JONATHAN}
Now show me
What’s holy

{DAVID}
Adoni
