Lyrics Hadestown Cast – Wait For Me II
Text:
Hermes:
Meanest dog you’ll ever meet
It ain’t the hound dog in the street
He bares his teeth and tears your skin
The dog you really got to dread
Is the one that howls inside your head
It’s him whose howling drives men mad
And a mind to its undoing
Persephone:
You think they’ll make it?
Hades:
I don’t know
Persephone:
Hades, you let them go
Hades:
I let them try
Persephone:
Then how ’bout you and I?
Are we gonna try again?
Hades:
It’s almost spring
We’ll try again next fall
Persephone:
Wait for me?
Hades:
I will
Company:
Wait for me, I’m coming
Wait, I’m coming with you
I’m coming too
Hermes:
You got a lonesome road to walk
It ain’t along the railroad track
It ain’t along the black-top tar
You’ve walked a hundred times before
I’ll tell you where the real road lies
Between your ears, behind your eyes
That is the path to paradise
And, likewise, the road to ruin
Company:
Wait for me, I’m coming
Wait, I’m coming with you
Wait for me, I’m coming too
I’m coming too
Wait, wait
Eurydice:
Wait
Wait…
