***
Wrap me up in linens
Cover me in myrrh
Take away my foolish pride
Make silent foolish words
I have loved and wondered
I have laughed and cried
I have lived a human life
Don't know the reason why
(chorus)
Orpheus descending
Orpheus is mending
Threads are unraveling
We have got some traveling
Let's walk at the edge of the night
If you have stopped seeing
The wonder in the life
Take my hand forever
Let's walk at the edge of the night
I have touched the river
I have felt the sea
Everyone knows the weather
Is just a passing thing
Tell me about the planets
And comets in the sky
Everything is moving
Don't know the reason why
(chorus)
Orpheus descending
Orpheus is mending
Threads are unraveling
We have got some traveling
Let's walk at the edge of the night
If you have stopped seeing
The wonder in the life
Take my hand forever
Let's walk at the edge of the night
Wrap me up in linens
Cover me in myrrh
Take away my foolish pride
Make silent foolish words
I have loved and wondered
I have laughed and cried
I have lived a human life
Don't know the reason why
(chorus)
Orpheus descending
Orpheus is mending
Threads are unraveling
We have got some traveling
Let's walk at the edge of the night
If you have stopped seeing
The wonder in the life
Take my hand forever
Let's walk at the edge of the night
