Come Home with Me [French translation]

[HERMES, spoken]

You wanna talk to her?

[ORPHEUS, spoken]

Yes!

[HERMES, spoken]

Go on

Orpheus?

[ORPHEUS, spoken]

Yes?

[HERMES, spoken]

Don't come on too strong

[ORPHEUS]

Come home with me

[EURYDICE]

Who are you?

[ORPHEUS and Chorus]

The man who's gonna marry you

I'm Orpheus

[EURYDICE, spoken]

Is he always like this?

[HERMES, spoken]

Yes

[EURYDICE, spoken]

I'm Eurydice

[ORPHEUS and Chorus]

Your name is like a melody

[EURYDICE, spoken]

A singer, is that what you are?

[ORPHEUS]

I also play the lyre…

[EURYDICE, spoken]

Oh, a liar, AND a player too!

I've met too many men like you

[ORPHEUS]

Oh, no

I'm not like that

[HERMES, spoken]

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, spoken]

Come again?

[ORPHEUS]

Spring will come

[EURYDICE, spoken]

When? I haven't seen a spring or fall since…

I can't recall

[ORPHEUS, spoken]

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, spoken]

When you become my wife

[EURYDICE, spoken]

Oh, he's crazy. Why would I become his wife?

[HERMES, spoken]

Maybe because he'll make you feel alive

[EURYDICE, spoken]

Alive? That's worth a lot
