We Raise our Cups Amber Gray, Eva Noblezada & Hadestown Original Broadway Company

[PERSEPHONE]
Pour the wine and raise a cup
Drink up, brothers, you know how
And spill a drop for Orpheus
Wherever he is now

[PERSEPHONE & EURYDICE]
Some birds sing when the sun shines bright
Our praise is not for them

[PERSEPHONE]
But the ones who sing in the dead of night
We raise our cups to them

[PERSEPHONE & EURYDICE]
Wherever he is wandering
Alone upon the earth
Let all our singing follow him

[PERSEPHONE]
And bring him comfort

[COMPANY, PERSEPHONE & EURYDICE]
Some flowers bloom where the green grass grows
Our praise is not for them
But the ones who bloom in the bitter snow
We raise our cups to them
