[Orpheus and Chorus]
The man who's gonna marry you
I'm Orpheus
[Eurydice]
Is he always like this?
[Hermes]
Yes
[Eurydice]
I'm Eurydice
[Orpheus and Chorus]
Your name is like a melody
[Eurydice]
A singer, is that what you are?
[Orpheus]
I also play the lyre
[Eurydice]
Oh, a liar, and a player too!
I've met too many men like you
[Orpheus]
Oh, no
I'm not like that
[Hermes]
He's not like any man you've met
Tell her what you're workin' on
[Orpheus]
I'm workin' on a song
[Orpheus and Chorus]
It isn't finished yet
But when it's done and when I sing it
Spring will come again
[Eurydice]
Come again?
[Orpheus]
Spring will come
[Eurydice]
When? I haven't seen a spring or fall since
I can't recall
[Orpheus]
That's what I'm workin' on
[Orpheus and Chorus]
A song to fix what's wrong
Take what's broken, make it whole
A song so beautiful
It brings the world back into tune
Back into time
And all the flowers will bloom
[Orpheus]
When you become my wife
[Eurydice]
Oh, he's crazy. Why would I become his wife?
[Hermes]
Maybe because he'll make you feel alive
[Eurydice]
Alive? That's worth a lot
What else ya got?
