Lament of Orpheus - Darren Korb

Hear, o gods, my desperate plea

To see my love beside me

Sunk below the mortal sea

Her anchor weighs upon me

Fasten her tether unto me

That she may rise to sail free

Don’t look back

Close enough that light we can see

My doubt betrays the better of me

A glance to the stern is all it would b

That anguished shade shall haunt me

Ever on

Calm

Seas

Winds a-lee

But now the squall’s upon us

We’re foundering

Drowning

Don’t look back
