Description
Eurydice is a blend of influences and perspectives relating to a tragic event. Borrowing imagery from greek myth and brimming with emotion, the melody sweeps you through a painful story, emerging with a subdued, yet hopeful promise. Bill's beautifully original musical palette is on display, supporting the lyrics with visceral, soaring emotion. Brilliantly crafted and from the heart, Eurydice is one of Bill's most beautiful songs.
Lyrics
I lie awake and wonder if there's anywhere to crawl to 'Cause I know just where I'd fall to, losing you I fall asleep and dream that I've been running Oh I can feel you coming but can't turn around to see Euridyce, well, she lives in me Hold my breath that your still behind me From afar she put energy in the stars tonight But I know she's reaching out to squeeze my hand tight It's bizarre how fast, how far you've come into my life I've been waiting for my love to last the night Oh Eurydice, well, she lives with me Looking in her eyes when I close mine to dream I know I'm just another soul to touch And maybe I ask too much I can't be the only one who's been drawn in Oh but I thought I had your eye And now I'll miss you more each time yours don't catch mine Persephone won't you come to live in me Turn these ashes into spring Wish that you could see the man that I'm gonna be Wish that you could see the man that I'm gonna be Wish that you could see, wish that you could see The man that I'm gonna be A night to say goodbye is not enough And I'm calling your phone but you won't pick up Sometime when you feel you're biting on the dust Call, you know I'd be on the very next bus to you
