Eurydice

Eurydice smiled as she walked up the stairs A bouquet of flowers clutched tight in her hands The love of her life might be waiting up there But would he make real what she sees in her head? Her father said, darling, be careful with trust It wrinkles and shrivels when it comes undone So she got to the door with a tear in her eye Her heart moved her head but her feet couldn't lie If you take one more step Then the damage is done But if you turn around You'll be giving this up Maybe it's time to feel trusting again Eurydice, darling, just give him your hand He might love you He might really love you He opened the door and he looked in her eyes They shined just the same as they did in his mind But how could he show her he means what he says? It might take him years but she'll trust in the end His mother said, darling, be careful with love It's hard to get rid of when you find it once So he looked at the floor with a tear in his eye His heart on his face but his voice couldn't lie If you take one more step Then the damage is done But if you turn around You'll be giving this up Maybe it's time to feel trusting again Eurydice, dear, if you give me your hand I will love you I'll really love you I'll love you, yeah I'll love you And I'll love you And I'll love you And I'll love you
