Calliope, I can hear your voice As clear as a bell As a bell ringing through the night Through the night O Calliope, Your tablets of wax And your golden crown So wise, so wise O Calliope, I need your impartial eye To guide me My love is gone to another O Calliope, Your archaic smile What lurks behind And makes your lips look alive Look alive O Calliope, I fear I'm growing cold As the marble stone That you lie in That you lie in O Calliope, I need your impartial eye To guide me when my love is gone He is gone, gone for good Tell him to return Tell him to return Tell him to return
