[hermes, spoken]
now, orpheus was the son of a muse
and you know how those muses are
sometimes they abandon you

and this poor boy, he wore his heart out on his sleeve
you might say he was naive, to the ways of the world
but he had a way with words
and a rhythm and a rhyme
and he sang just like a bird, up on a line

and it ain’t because i’m kind
but his mama was a friend of mine
and i like to hear him sing
and his way of seeing things
so i took him under my wing

and that is where he stayed
until one day
you want to 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, spoken]
who are you?

[orpheus]
the man who’s going to marry you
i’m orpheus

[eurydice, spoken]
is he always like this?

[hermes, spoken]
yes

[eurydice, spoken]
i’m eurydice

[orpheus]
your name is like a melody
[eurydice, spoken]
a singer? is that what you are?

[orpheus]
i also play the lyre

[eurydice, spoken]
a liar and player too? i’ve met too many men like you

[orpheus]
oh no, i’m not like that

[hermes, spoken]
hes not like any man you’ve met
tell her what you’re working on

[orpheus]
i’m working on a song
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]
that’s what i’m working on
a song to fix whats wrong
take what’s broken and make it whole
a song so beautiful
it brings the world back into tune, back into time
and all the flowers will bloom
when you become my wife

[eurydice, spoken]
whoa, 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
what else you got?
