Abigail Barlow - The Ruse Lyrics

[SIMON]
Maybe there's another way
Another role to play here
To keep the press and the desperate mothers at bay
We can change the story
What do you say?

[DAPHNE]
What are you suggesting, Your Grace?

[SIMON]
We convince them there’s a flame between us

[DAPHNE]
Between us?

[SIMON]
And you will be the diamond of the season once again

[DAPHNE]
And you'll have reinstated your freedom

[SIMON]
We can convince them there's a flame
That since we met our hearts were set ablaze
And we will be exactly what they say we are
Me, unavailable
You? Desirable
[SIMON, spoken]
Look me in the eyes. If this is to work, we must appear madly in love. Dance with me, Miss Bridgerton
Perfect

[DAPHNE, spoken]
Not so bad yourself

[SOCIETY]
Could there be a flame?
And could she be the one to change his pace?
And they are sure to be the talk of all the town
He’s unavailable and she's desirable

[PRINCE FREDERICK]
She must be mine
She must be my bride

[CRESSIDA]
Why her?
Why not me?
Why not I?
When he looks her in the eyes
Could she have won the most coveted prize?

[LADY WHISTLEDOWN]
It's clear as day that there's a flame
A spark that must have caught them by surprise
They seem to have enchanted one another's hearts
He's unavailable and she's desirable
She's a diamond once more
Who could have known?
It must be fate
