Eurydice (Don't Follow)

A focused voice reigns down like a firestorm
you know what you must do
venture down into the underworld to prove that love is true

Eurydice don’t follow me
the world has grown so cold
Eurydice don’t follow me
my love I’m losing hold

and if my voice won’t move the Ferrymen
on my affections alone i’ll cross
then stare into the eyes of death eternal
no matter what the cost

Eurydice don’t follow me
the world has grown so cold
Eurydice don’t follow me
my love I’m losing hold

sacrifices and the light
that leads me here through this night
as vision breaks the world grows dim
persephone argue my case to him
i’ll take his word no looking back
the bridge we cross i will not look
and her footsteps i do not hear
is she far behind me or standing near?

Eurydice don’t follow me
the world has grown so cold
Eurydice don’t follow me
my love I’m losing hold

Eurydice don’t follow me
now that my dreams turn black
Eurydice don’t follow me
there’ll be no looking back
