Orpheus lyrics

Orpheus, it could have been

You could have held me again

You said your songs had all gone

And that the road back up was too long

But it was there for us

It was there for us

I loved you all along

Orpheus

The part of me that died

Was ready to be reborn

And you called off the hounds

Of hell with your songs

Orpheus, Orpheus

I loved you all along, Orpheus

Orpheus, it could have been

You could have held me again

But you couldn't wait

Somewhere along the road

You lost your faith

Out of despair and believing I was gone

You gave up on my love

You gave up on us

But it was there for us

It was there for us

I loved you all along

Orpheus
