I love this song, but sorry if this chapter isn't that good I'm in reading class rn. Anyways I'm thinking that I'm gonna have them react to Charming from Great Comet during intermission.
"Okay everyone prepare for an adorable love song!" Elizabeth said excitedly.
[EURYDICE]
I was alone so long
I didn't even know that I was lonely
Out in the cold so long
I didn't even know that I was cold
Turned my collar to the wind
This is how it's always been
"It has been that way" Eurydice said.
All I've ever known is how to hold my own
All I've ever known is how to hold my own
But now I wanna hold you, too
Orpheus looked at Eurydice with kind glittering eyes. (Thank you Great Comet for that line) Smiling, the couple shared a tender hug.
You take me in your arms
And suddenly there's sunlight all around me
Everything bright and warm
And shining like it never did before
And for a moment I forget
Just how dark and cold it gets
"Wait I really help you like that?" asked Orpheus, touched by the words of the song. Eurydice nodded.
All I've ever known is how to hold my own
All I've ever known is how to hold my own
But now I wanna hold you
Now I wanna hold you, hold you close
I don't wanna ever have to let you go
Now I wanna hold you, hold you tight
I don't wanna go back to the lonely life
"Weeeeelllll you don't necessarily go back to the lone life" Elizabeth said, everyone was confused by what that meant.
[ORPHEUS]
I don't know how or why
Or who am I that I should get to hold you
But when I saw you all alone against the sky
It's like I'd known you all along
I knew you before we met
And I don't even know you yet
All I know is you're someone I have always known
Everyone realized how sweet the couple is, Persephone was reminded of her early relationship with Hades.
[ORPHEUS and EURYDICE]
All I know is you're someone I have always known
And I don't even know you
Now I wanna hold you, hold you close
I don't wanna ever have to let you go
[EURYDICE]
Suddenly the sunlight
Bright and warm
[ORPHEUS]
Suddenly I'm holding the world in my arms
"I've never realized this line before even though I've listened to this a lot." Elizabeth said matter of factly.
[EURYDICE]
Say that you'll hold me forever
Say that the wind won't change on us
Say that we'll stay with each other
And it will always be like this
[ORPHEUS]
I'm gonna hold you forever
The wind will never change on us
Long as we stay with each other
[ORPHEUS and EURYDICE]
Then it will always be like this
The couple shared a chaste kiss. Everyone looked at them softly, they could all tell that they shared much love. Even Hades could tell, albeit he didn't realize how much love they shared as he could only think of his failed marriage with his wife.
