Orpheus, son of Apollo
With lyre in hand and heart so hollow
Descended to the underworld deep
In search of his love he could not keep
In search of his love he could not keep

His voice so sweet, his fingers nimble
He played a tune that made rocks tremble
And all the shades that roamed that land
Fell silent at his command

Hades, god of death and gloom
Was moved to tears by Orpheus' tune
And granted him his heart's desire
To lead his love back to the living fire

But one condition was made clear
As they ascended from the underworld drear
Orpheus must not look back to see
His love behind him, walking free
Orpheus must not look back to see
His love behind him, walking free

I need to see you
I need to see 

Orpheus must not look back to see
His love behind him, walking free
His love behind him, walking free

Alas, he failed this final test
And turned to see his love at rest
Eurydice was lost forevermore
And Orpheus wept forevermore

Orpheus wept forevermore
Orpheus wept forevermore
Forevermore
