Hadestown Original Broadway Company, Anaïs Mitchell, Reeve Carney, André De Shields, Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer, Eva Noblezada, Kay Trinidad and Jewelle Blackman - A Gathering Storm

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

With Persephone gone the cold came on
He came too soon
He came for her too soon
It's not suppose to be like this
Well, 'til someone brings the world back into tune
This is how it is

Orpheus had a gift to give
Hey, where are you going?
Touched by the gods is what he was
I have to finish the song
Finish it quick
The wind is changing
There's a storm coming on

Wind comes up, ooh
We need food
Wind comes up, ooh
We need firewood
Orpheus and Eurydice
Did you hear me, Orpheus?
Poor boy working on a song
Orpheus
Young girl looking for something to eat
Okay, finish it
Under a gathering storm
