Trust Me Lyrics by Jeff Wayne

Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of Spartacus

0

Palene: Mountains and ravines: Scyllaeum was a desolate place. We were in despair. All except Spartacus. He had a plan for our escape. Far below in the port, were anchored the ships of the Cilician pirates. Spartacus and I climbed down the cliffs to meet their leader, Isoricus
As we entered his tent we saw a handsome, olive-skinned man, lying on rich, embroidered cushions, while a beautiful slave-girl combed his long black hair and another brought him a silver goblet of sherbet. Isoricus greeted us like a courteous king

Isoricus:
There you stand before me
And you're slightly at a loss
Now you know the seas are stormy
And only I can get across
You come to me to see if I can pull you through
It can't be easy for a man like you
To be in this situation
I'd love to help you with a noble deed
Deliver you in your hour of need
To your final destination
I try to do the best that I can
Oh I try and I try
'Cos I've always been a man you can count on

So, trust me
And I won't let you down
'Cos my word is a by-word for honesty
So trust me
I won't let you down
I'll get you where you want to go, oh!
That's the way it must be
'Cos there isn't any doubt
That I can get you out
Yes I'm a man of honour
So I guess you're gonna have to
Trust me

Call me sentimental
I'm prepared to take a chance
Just to cover incidentals
I need a little in advance
You know I'd love to give you my assistance free
But it's not easy for a man like me
With a business to take care of
The cost of living only seems to rise
But the cost of dying is what I advise
You'd be wise to be aware of
I try to do the best that I can
Oh I try and I try
'Cos you know that I'm a man of compassion

So, trust me
And I won't let you down
'Cos my word is a by-word for honesty
So trust me
I won't let you down
I'll get you where you want to go, oh!
That's the way it must be
'Cos there isn't any doubt
That I can get you out
Yes I'm a man of honour
So I guess you're gonna have to
Trust me

As I watch you walk away
You wear an air of satisfaction
'round here you're just a sideshow
I'm the main attraction
My word is a by-word
For something that's for sure
But honesty's a quality
That I'm not famous for
I mean what did you expect?
I'm a pirate for god's sake!
You've put your faith in me
And it's the last mistake you'll make
Trust me, trust me

I hear that on your travels
You've amassed yourself some treasure
To take it off your hands
Will be an honour and a pleasure
But don't be too depressed
That you've been cheated, robbed and lied to
In desperate situations
Men believe what they decide to
And when I double cross you
It's not because I hate you
It's really nothing personal
It's simply in my nature
Trust me

You made a wise decision, your future's set
This is one agreement you will not forget
In a hurry I assure you
We've made a deal and I guarantee
You'll have a good reason to remember me
In the days that lie before you
I try to do the best that I can
Oh I try and I try
'Cos I've always been a man to rely on

So, trust me
And I won't let you down
'Cos my word is a by-word for honesty
So trust me
I won't let you down
I'll get you where you want to go, oh!
That's the way it must be
'Cos there isn't any doubt
That I can get you out
Yes I'm a man of honour
So I guess you're gonna have to
Trust me

Palene: Isoricus demanded everything we had captured from the Romans in return for his help. The price was heavy but our hearts were light as we left the pirate's tent
