Orpheus Lyrics

We grew a tree back in the garden
With a celestial seed that fell down to us from the stars
The sun rose high and killed our shadows
There's more to see under the light than in the dark
Eurydice died from a viper
The girl Orpheus knew he'd die for
Go to the Underworld and fight for
'Cause life's just death if I don't have you
So I'll find Hell to be trapped into to get back to you
To get back to you

Just for this moment
Can I hold you?
Feel your heartbeat
Till it fades
And in this moment
It's me and you only
I will love you
For all my days

Somewhere in a different realm, we're still together
Somehow, I'll find my way to you again
Shipwrecked, but I hold hopes of buried treasure
I'll cry ten thousand tears so I can swim
Came up for air, my world's froze over
Strands of your hair still on my shoulder
And gravity's pull was never stronger
Than my soul's cord attached to you
I'm lost, but my heart's got the map to you, to get back to you
To get back to you

Just for this moment
Can I hold you?
Feel your heartbeat
Till it fades
And in this moment
It's me and you only
I will love you
For all my days

Do you remember when you mistakenly thought that I could make you happy?
I wish that we could still dream that dream
I won't let you love me, but I can't let you leave me
It's a tragedy and we've all seen that scene
