[Orpheus]

Mr. Hermes!

[Hermes]

Hey, the big artiste!

Ain't you working on your masterpiece?

[Orpheus]

Where's Eurydice?

[Hermes]

Brother, what do you care?

You'll find another muse somewhere

[Orpheus]

Where is she?

[Hermes]

Why you wanna know?

[Orpheus]

Wherever she is, is where I'll go

[Hermes]

And what if I said she's down below?

[Orpheus]

Down below?

[Hermes]

Down below

Six-feet-under-the-ground below

She called your name before she went

But I guess you weren't listening

[Orpheus]

No

[Hermes]

So

Just how far would you go for her?

[Orpheus]

To the end of time

To the end of the earth

[Hermes]

You got a ticket?

[Orpheus]

No?

[Hermes]

Yeah, I didn't think so

Course there is another way

But nah, I ain't supposed to say

[Orpheus]

Another way?

[Hermes]

Around the back

But that ain't easy walkin', Jack

It ain't for the sensitive of soul

So do you really wanna go?

[Orpheus]

With all my heart

[Hermes]

With all your heart?

Well, that's a start
