lyrics

I’ll follow in the footsteps of Orpheus
To show the Lord and Lady the love we’d won
I’ll ask them if they’ve ever seen a love so true
I’ll sing my lament to the gods to get to you

I am not afraid of monsters or of ghosts
They’ll have to cut through this fog of grief before I’d even notice
My worst nightmare happened before my eyes
So let the underworld throw out their worst surprise

Looking back will drive you mad
But looking forward will have the same effect
Either way I don’t have you
What’s a girl supposed to do?

The Goddess of spring is quick to hear my word
Mother of all the lost and broken souls
And soon the heart of Hades is melted too
Even he could not ignore my love for you

Looking back will drive you mad
But looking forward will have the same effect
Either way I don’t have you
What’s a girl supposed to do?

Orpheus, my brother
Help me find the way you traveled in the night
Reunite me with my lover
I promises I won’t make the same mistake this time
