Orfeo fue de viaje al infierno a buscar a su hermosa esposa, muerta por la mordida de una serpiente. El músico que era capaz de conmover prácticamente a toda criatura o cosa que escuchara su canto logró conmover a Hades, quien le permitió llevarse de vuelta al mundo de los vivos a Eurídice con la condición de que no volteara a verla sino hasta haber abandonado las tinieblas del infierno. Orfeo accedió, pero no logró contenerse y casi hacia el final de su recorrido, impulsado por su amor desmedido, miró hacia atrás y su amada fue tragada por las tinieblas del inframundo. Orfeo no pudo volver a encontrarla, impedido por el barquero caronte, proscrito del inframundo y entonces no tuvo otra opción que vagar por el mundo.
Es que esto nunca se acaba...
Hey, Orpheus!
I'm behind you
Don't turn around
I can find you
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
And if I call for you
Oh, Orpheus!
Just sing for me all night
We'll wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
You say it's not me, it's you
Hey, Orpheus!
De l'autre côté de l'eau
Comme un écho
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
And if I shout for you
Never doubt
Don't turn around too soon
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
It seems so important now
But you will get over
Seems so important now
But you will get over
And when you get over
And when you get older
Then you will remember
Why it was so important then
Seems like a big deal now
But you will get over
Seems like a big deal now
You will get over
When you get over
When you get older
Then you will discover
That it's never over
Hey, Eurydice!
Can you see me?
I will sing your name
Till you're sick of me
Just wait until it's over
Just wait until it's through
And if you call for me
This frozen sea
It melts beneath me
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
Seems like a big deal now
You will get over
Seems like a big deal now
You will get over
And when you get over
When you get older
You will remember
He told you he'd wake you up
When it was over
He told you he'd wake you up
When it was over
Now that it's over
Now that you're older
Then you will discover
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
Sometime (Sometime)
Sometime (Sometime)
Boy, they're gonna eat you alive (eat you alive)
But it's never gonna happen now
We'll figure it out somehow
Sometime (Sometime)
Sometime (Sometime)
Boy, they're gonna eat you alive (eat you alive)
But it's never gonna happen now
We'll figure it out somehow
'Cause it's never over
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
And it's never over (it's never over)
It's never over (it's never over)
We stood beside
A frozen sea
I saw you out
In front of me
Reflected light
A hollow moon
Oh Orpheus, Eurydice
Its over too soon
I'm behind you
Don't turn around
I can find you
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
And if I call for you
Oh, Orpheus!
Just sing for me all night
We'll wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
You say it's not me, it's you

Oh Orpheus, Eurydice
Its over too soon
Nunca se acaba (Oh, Orfeo)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
¡Hey, Orfeo!
Estoy detrás de ti,
Estoy detrás de ti,
no voltees,
te puedo encontrar.
Sólo espera a que se acabe.
Espera hasta que termine.
Y si te llamo,
Espera hasta que termine.
Y si te llamo,
oh, Orfeo,
sólo canta para mí esta noche.
Esperaremos a que acabe.
Esperaremos a que termine.
Dices que no soy yo sino tú.
¡Hey, Orfeo!
Del otro lado del río
Del otro lado del río
se hace un eco,
sólo espera a que se acabe
espera a que termine.
Y si grito por ti,
nunca dudes,
nunca dudes,
no te des la vuelta demasiado pronto,
sólo espera a que se acabe,
espera a que termine.
Parece tan importante ahora,
pero vas a lograrlo,
parece tan importante ahora,
pero vas a lograrlo,
y cuando lo hagas,
y cuando seas mayor,
y cuando seas mayor,
te vas a acordar,
porque era tan importante entonces.
Parece algo muy grave ahora,
porque era tan importante entonces.
Parece algo muy grave ahora,
pero lo vas a superar,
parece algo grave ahora,
parece algo grave ahora,
pero vas a superarlo,
cuando lo superes
cuando seas mayor
entonces descubrirás
que nunca se acaba.
¡Hey, Eurídice!
¿Puedes verme?
¿Puedes verme?
Cantaré tu nombre,
hasta que estés harta de mí.
Sólo espera a que se acabe,
espera a que termine.
Y si clamas por mí...
Y si clamas por mí...
este mar congelado
se derrite bajo mis pies.
Sólo espera a que acabe.
Espera a que termine.
Parece algo muy grave ahora,
lo vas a superar,
parece algo grave ahora,
parece algo grave ahora,
vas a superarlo,
cuando lo superes,
cuando seas mayor,
recordarás.
Él te dijo que te despertaría
Él te dijo que te despertaría
cuando acabara
él te dijo que te despertaría
cuando acabara
y ahora que ha terminado
y ahora que ha terminado
ahora que eres mayor
entonces descubrirás...
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
alguna vez (alguna vez)
alguna vez (alguna vez)
muchacho, te comerán vivo (te comerán vivo)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
alguna vez (alguna vez)
alguna vez (alguna vez)
muchacho, te comerán vivo (te comerán vivo)
pero nunca va a pasar ya
lo solucionaremos de algún modo
porque nunca se acaba
Oh, Orfeo, Eurídice,
se acabó muy pronto.
Alguna vez (alguna vez)
Alguna vez (alguna vez)
muchacho, te comerán vivo (te comerán vivo)
Alguna vez (alguna vez)

nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
y nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
nunca se acaba (nunca se acaba)
Nos paramos junto a un mar congelado
te vi afuera,
enfrente de mí.
Luz reflejada,
una luz hueca...Oh, Orfeo, Eurídice,
se acabó muy pronto.
