Eurydice Lyrics

Eurydice smiled as she walked up the stairs

A bouquet of flowers clutched tight in her hands

The love of her life might be waiting up there

But would he make real what she sees in her head?

Her father said, darling, be careful with trust

It wrinkles and shrivels when it comes undone

So she got to the door with a tear in her eye

Her heart moved her head but her feet couldn't lie

If you take one more step

Then the damage is done

But if you turn around

You'll be giving this up

Maybe it's time to feel trusting again

Eurydice, darling, just give him your hand

He might love you

He might really love you

He opened the door and he looked in her eyes

They shined just the same as they did in his mind

But how could he show her he means what he says?

It might take him years but she'll trust in the end

His mother said, darling, be careful with love

It's hard to get rid of when you find it once

So he looked at the floor with a tear in his eye

His heart on his face but his voice couldn't lie

If you take one more step

Then the damage is done

But if you turn around

You'll be giving this up

Maybe it's time to feel trusting again

Eurydice, dear, if you give me your hand

I will love you

I'll really love you

I'll love you, I'll love you

And I'll love you

And I'll love you

I'll love you
