Road To Hell (Reprise)

Lyrics

[HERMES] A'ight It's an old song It's an old tale from way back when It's an old song [HERMES, spoken] And that is how it ends [HERMES] That's how it goes Don't ask why, brother, don't ask how He could have come so close The song was written long ago [HERMES, spoken] And that is how it goes [HERMES] It's a sad song It's a sad tale [HERMES, spoken] It's a tragedy [HERMES] It's a sad song [HERMES, spoken] But we sing it anyway 'Cause here's the thing To know how it ends And still begin to sing it again As if it might turn out this time I learned that from a friend of mine See, Orpheus was a poor boy [EURYDICE, spoken] Anybody got a match? [HERMES, spoken] But he had a gift to give [EURYDICE, spoken] Gimme that [HERMES, spoken] He could make you see how the world could be [HERMES] In spite of the way that it is [HERMES, spoken] Can you see it? Can you hear it? [HERMES] Can you feel it like a train? [HERMES, spoken] Is it coming? Is it coming this way? [HERMES] On a sunny day, there was a railroad car And a lady steppin' off a train Everybody looked and everybody saw That spring had come again With a love song [PERSEPHONE] With a love song [COMPANY] With a love song [HERMES] With a tale of a love from long ago It's a sad song [COMPANY] It's a sad song [PERSEPHONE] It's a sad song [HERMES] But we keep singin' even so It's an old song [EURYDICE] It's an old song [ORPHEUS] It's an old song [COMPANY] It's an old song [HERMES] It's an old tale from way back when And we're gonna sing it again and again We're gonna sing, we're gonna sing [ALL] It's a love song It's a tale of a love from long ago It's a sad song We keep singing even so It's an old song It's an old tale from way back when And we're gonna sing it again and again [HERMES] We're gonna sing it again
