Tolstoy - Eurydice Lyrics

When you were alive I was your tree
And you would find comfort in the darkness below me
And the others they knew that you were my favorite
And the letters to you from my grave stand to prove it
Eurydice I found you in the midst of hell
Oh the daughter I love, come to save me from myself
In wedding attire you thought you'd be
So happy a bride and so interesting
And your lover he wore a coat made of rhythms
Well he dreamt of that night and soiling the linens
Eurydice I found you in the midst of hell
Oh the daughter I love, come to save me from myself
Yet a mysterious man said that he's known your father
And he told you he had a letter for a dad's favorite daughter
Well he stole you away from the man made of music
Stole you into the night to be one of his muses
Eurydice
Eurydice I found you in the midst of hell
Oh the daughter I love, come to save me from myself
