Hadestown - Promises Lyrics

[Eurydice]
Orpheus?

[Orpheus]
Yes?

[Eurydice]
You finished it

[Orpheus]
Yes! Now what do I do?

[Eurydice]
You take me home with you!
Let's go, let’s go right now!

[Orpheus]
Okay, let's go
How?

[Eurydice]
We'll walk, you know the way!
We’ll just go back the way you come

[Orpheus]
It's a long road
It's a long walk
Back into the cold and dark
Are you sure you wanna go?

[Eurydice]
Take me home

[Orpheus]
I have no ring for your finger
I have no banquet table to lay
I have no bed of feathers
Whatever promises I made
I can't promise you fair sky above
Can't promise you kind road below
But I'll walk beside you, love
Any way the wind blows

[Eurydice]
I don't need gold, don't need silver
Just bread when I’m hungry
Fire when I’m cold
Don't need a ring for my finger
Just need a steady hand to hold
Don’t promise me fair sky above
Don't promise me kind road below
Just walk beside me, love
Any way the wind blows

[Orpheus]
What about him?

[Eurydice]
He'll let us go, look at him
He can't say no

[Orpheus]
What about them?

[Eurydice]
We’ll show the way
If we can do it, so can they

[Orpheus and Eurydice]
I don't know where this road will end
But I'll walk it with you, hand in hand
I can't promise you fair sky above
Can't promise you kind road below
But I'll walk beside you, love
Any way the wind blows

[Orpheus]
Do you let me walk with you?

[Eurydice]
I do

[Orpheus]
I do

[Orpheus and Eurydice]
I do

[Eurydice]
And keep on walking, come what will?

[Orpheus]
I will

[Eurydice]
I will

[Orpheus and Eurydice]
We will
