Orpheus

Lost her after the celebration
The joy was brief
A viper stung her to death
Now she's lying there

In moment she was fading away
A veil of sorrow covered him
All that remains, a song of sadness
With a tragic melody

In misery, his chant of love
He made heaven cry about his loss
Passed the gates to the kingdom below
To return together from the underworld

And where the shadows are falling
I'll find her, I'll bring her back!

She was summoned
And given to him
They were going back hand in hand
Joyfully
But there was a rule
Don't look back to see her face
Until you reach the light
He failed and she disappeared
Lost again

The music was his gift and he played
These charming melodies to the world
But couldn't save the one he loved
From the cold embrace of the dark

And where the shadows are falling
I'll find her, I'll bring her back!

She was summoned
And given to him
They were going back hand in hand
Joyfully
But there was a rule
Don't look back to see her face
Until you reach the light
He failed and she disappeared
Lost again
