About

This song is performed after the curtain call when the stage lights are up and the audience is (typically) standing after giving their ovation. The song, led by Persephone, echoes the earlier toast by Orpheus of Persephone in “Livin' it Up on Top” and acts as a dismissal or farewell to the audience...

We Raise our Cups Lyrics

[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

[COMPANY]
We raise our cups and drink them up

[PERSEPHONE]
We raise 'em high and drink 'em dry

[COMPANY]
To Orpheus and all of us

[PERSEPHONE]
Goodnight, brothers, goodnight
