Eurydice The Mule Lyrics

Eurydice was the mule he'd ride

She lay still inside her stall

Three days judging by the smell

He couldn't plow the fields were dry

The cow couldn't give no more

And his face fell

Hope has flown

I don't know where her ghost goes

But wherever her rose grows

There I'll go

Oh please

Won't you speak Eurydice

Could have I done something

When your heart gave out

And you were gone?

But he was never satisfied

He'd cheat death just once more

For it had served him well

He stole fire from the mountainside

Singing songs to the gods he'd know

To bring back that mule that fell

Hope grows

Persephone told me all she knows

This seed is far more precious

Than silver and gold

Here I go

Once more into this great unknown

Hold my breath as I let go

And see how far

My wings have flown

Eurydice was the mule he'd ride

Her heart beat just once more

Hope said all would be well
