Transpose
Eurydice
Orpheus?
Orpheus
Yes?
Eurydice
You finished it
Orpheus
Yes! Now what do I do?
Eurydice
You take me home with you!
Let's go, let’s go right now!
Orpheus
Okay, let's go... How?
Eurydice
We'll walk, you know the way!
We’ll just go back the way you
came
Orpheus
It's a long road
It's a long walk
Back into the cold and dark
Are you sure you wanna go?
Eurydice
Take me home
Orpheus
I have no ring for your finger
I have no banquet table to lay
I have no bed of feathers
Whatever promises I made
I can't promise you fair sky
above
Can't promise you kind road
below
But I'll walk beside you, love
Any way the wind blows
Eurydice
I don't need gold, don't need
silver
Just bread when I’m hungry
Fire when I’m cold
Don't need a ring for my finger
Just need a steady hand to hold
Don’t promise me fair sky above
Don't promise me kind road below
Just walk beside me, love
Any way the wind blows
Orpheus
What about him?
Eurydice
He'll let us go, look at him
He can't say no
Orpheus
What about them?
Eurydice
We’ll show the way
If we can do it, so can they
Orpheus And Eurydice
I don't know where this road
will end
But I'll walk it with you, hand
in hand
I can't promise you fair sky
above
Can't promise you kind road
below
But I'll walk beside you, love
Any way the wind blows
Orpheus
Do you let me walk with you?
Eurydice
I do
Orpheus
I do
Orpheus And Eurydice
I do
Eurydice
And keep on walking, come what
will?
Orpheus
I will
Eurydice
I will
Orpheus And Eurydice
We will
