Background: Olympias father is a fugitive running from his past, he took in Olympia after her mother died.
Otis and Oona are great friends. Oona has a crush on Otis. Otis saw Olympia in the market place and she saw him, it was love at first sight. Otis asks Oona to discover were she lives, after she does she takes him to her.
On with it!!!
        Olympia danced around her garden in her nightgown. She had just seen the most handsome man at the market place. It was love at first sight. She sat down on a stump.

"How strange,". She sang. " this feeling that my lives begun at last,
this change,
can people really fall in love so fast?
What's the matter with you, Olympia?
Have you been to much on your own?
So many things unclear,
So many things unknown. "

She got up and started walking around the garden.

"In my life,
There are so many questions and answers
That somehow seem wrong.
In my life,
There are times when I catch in the silence,
The sigh of a faraway song,
And it sings,
Of a word that I long to see,
Out of reach
Just a whisper away,
Waiting for me"

Olympia walked to the fence and looked through it.

"Does he know I'm alive
Do I know if he's real?
Does he see what I saw,
Does he feel what I feel?

In my life,
I'm no longer alone
Now the love of my life is so near,
Fine me now,
Find me here."

Olympias father came out into the garden. She began to walk over to him.

"Dear Olympia," he sang, "your such a lonely child,
How pensive, how sad you seem to me,
Believe me, if it were in my power,
I'd fill each passing hour,
How quiet it must be,
I can see,
With only me for company."

Olympia reached over and touched a small scare on his arm.

"There's so little I know
That I'm longing to know
Of the child that I was
In a time long ago
There's so little you say
Of the life you have known,
why you keep to yourself, why we're always alone.
So dark, so dark and deep,
The secrets that you keep.

In my life I have all that I want,
You are loving and gentle and good,
But Papa, dear Papa in your eyes
I am just like a child who is lost in a wood!" She sang.

Olympia's father pulled away and sang:

"No more words!
No more words,
It's a time that is dead.
There are words
That are better unheard, better unsaid!"

"In my life" sang Olympia .
"I'm no longer a child
And I yearn for the truth that you know
Of the years years ago"

"You will learn
Truth is given by God
To us all in our time
In our turn" sang  Olympias father, as he walked back in the house.

       Olympia sat down by the door. Meanwhile, Oona was taking Otis to Olympias house. When the were near the fence if the garden Otis burst out singing:

"In my life she has burst like the music of angels
The light of the sun
And my life seems to stop
As if something is over
And something has scarcely begun
Oona,
you're the friend who has brought me here
Thanks to you I am one with the gods
And Heaven is near
And I soar through world that is new that is free!

Then Oona (who had a crush on Otis) sang to herself:

"Every word that he says is a dagger in me!
In my life
There's been no one like him anywhere
Anywhere, where he is...
If he asked... I'd be his"

"In my life" sang Oona and Otis.
"There is someone who touches my life"

"Waiting near" sang Otis.

"Waiting here" sang Oona. 

A\N so there it is!let me know if you want any more song shots (mabie I could do "a heart full of love"!). Thanks for reading!
