any way the wind blows - hadestown original broadway cast lyrics

[the fates]
ooooh…
ooooh…
ooooh…
ooooh…

[hermes]
eurydice was a hungry young girl
a runaway from everywhere she’d ever been
she was no stranger to the world
no stranger to the wind

[eurydice]
the weather ain’t the way it was before
ain’t no spring or fall at all anymore
it’s either blazing hot or freezing cold
any way the wind blows

[the fates]
and there ain’t a thing that you can do
when the weather takes a turn on you
‘cept for hurry up and hit the road
any way the wind blows
wind comes up
ooooh…

[eurydice]
do you hear that sound?

[the fates]
wind comes up
ooooh…

[eurydice]
move to another town
ain’t n-body gonna stick around

[eurydice and the fates]
when the dark clouds roll
any way the wind blows

[hermes]
you met the fates
remember them?

[eurydice]
anybody got a match?

[hermes]
always singing in the back of your mind

[eurydice]
gimme that

[hermes]
wherever it was this young girl went
the fates were close behind

[eurydice]
people turn on you just like the wind
everybody is a fair weather friend
in the end, you’re better off alone
any way the wind blows

[the fates]
when your body aches to lay it down
when you’re hungry and there ain’t enough to go round
ain’t no length to which a girl won’t go
any way the wind blows
wind comes up
ooooh…

[eurydice]
and sometimes you think

[the fates]
wind comes up
ooooh…

[eurydice]
you would do anything
just to fill your belly full of food
find a bed that you could fall into
where the weather wouldn’t follow you

[eurydice and the fates]
wherever you go
any way the wind blows

[hermes]
now orpheus was the son of a muse
and you know how those muses are
sometimes they abandon you
and this poor boy, he wore his heart out on his sleeve
you might say he was naïve to the ways of the world
but he had a way with words
and the rhythm and the rhyme
and he sang just like a bird up on a line
and it ain’t because i’m kind
but his mama was a friend of mine
and i liked to hear him sing and his way of seeing things
so i took him underneath my wing
and that is where he stayed
until one day…
