(Verse)
Orpheus, everyone loved to hear him sing
He played the lyre, a master of the strings
He enchanted man and beast, they would listen all day
Even rocks and trees would move to hear him play
There was a gathering of people, a beautiful afternoon
When a wood nymph named Eurydice, heard his tunes
She was beautiful and shy, it was love at first sight
He played for her until the sun set into the night

(Chorus)
Orpheus, His love had no end
He would travel to the underworld for true love
Orpheus, his love has no end
A love that transcends beyond life

(Verse)
Neither could cast their eyes off one another
Orpheus wanted to spend his life with her
Soon there would be a wedding date
There was one person Aristaeus who was irate
It was the wedding day, a lot of people did attend
Aristaeus plotted for orpheus eventual end
He planned a ambush, hid behind a tree
When they saw him, Orpheus grabbed her hand and flee

(Chorus)
Orpheus, His love had no end
He would travel to the underworld for true love
Orpheus, his love has no end
A love that transcends beyond life

(Verse)
While they were running, Eurydice stepped in a vipers den
Her wedding day she met her end, to the underworld she would decend
Orpheus was determined to get her back, got his lyre and left for Hades Lair
He sang songs to Hades that told of his love, it brought Hades to tears
Hades agreed he would give Orpheus his loved one back, on 1 condition
Eurydice would walk behind Orpheus until day light, that's Hades decision
Orpheus longed to see Eurydice, he obeyed Hades rule, he would not look back
When Orpheus got to the top, the sun on his face, he looked back,
Eurydice still in darkness disappeared right in front of his face

(Chorus)
Orpheus, His love had no end
He would travel to the underworld for true love
Orpheus, his love has no end
A love that transcends beyond life
