A Gathering Storm

"A Gathering Storm" is the tenth song in "Hadestown".

Lyrics
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

With Persephone gone, the cold came on

He came too soon

He came for her too soon

It's not supposed to be like this

Well, till 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 workin' on a song

Orpheus!

Young girl looking for something to eat

Okay, finish it

Under a gathering storm
