[Verse 1] You came to me broken, so I fixed you back up Laid down beside you, but then fell in love A life without aging on this island lost in time Don’t want you to leave… just stay one more night… [Pre-Chorus] Conflicted in feeling against what is right Is it love or possession if I begin to lose sight? I can’t bear the aching, and can’t keep you here Yes, the weather is perfect… but it’s the lonely I fear… ⸻ [Chorus] [Sing with playful charm, flirtation, and subtle possessiveness. Calypso still believes he can convince Odysseus to stay. The melody should feel bright, hypnotic, and inviting—as though paradise itself is singing.] Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee—see You can sail, but you won’t leave me Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee—see Calypso said that you’re his treat Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee— …US… Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee— …US… ⸻ [Verse 2] Please don’t leave me or sail into the storm I can’t protect you or keep you from harm I curse the gods that gave me this taste Of a love that’s one-sided, then ripped away I’d trade my forever and my sweetest of fruits If it meant I could spend one more moment with you I’d burn down this island and watch it all sink If I knew there was a chance you’d take a moment to think But that fate is not ours And I won’t wrap it in chains So I’ll watch you sail off As my eyes fill with rain ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] [The realization sets in. The internal battle is ending. The warmth fades into quiet heartbreak.] Conflicted in feeling against what is right Is it love or possession if I begin to lose sight? I can’t bear the aching, and can’t keep you here Yes, the weather is perfect… but it’s the lonely I fear… ⸻ [Chorus] Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee—see You can sail, but you won’t leave me Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee—see Calypso said that you’re his treat Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee— …US… Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee— …US… ⸻ [Bridge] Oh, the silence… my oldest of friends Now that he’s gone, I won’t hold it in I can fall to my knees with my hands in the sand Cry for forever, and there would still be no end Caly… Caly… Odyss—ee… …Us… ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] [Almost fragile now. No anger remains—only acceptance, grief, and love.] Conflicted in feeling against what is right Is it love or possession if I begin to lose sight? I can’t bear the aching, and can’t keep you here Yes, the weather is perfect… but it’s the lonely I fear… ⸻ [Soft Chorus] [A gentle memory rather than a conversation. Calypso sings as if remembering Odysseus after he’s already disappeared beyond the horizon.] Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee—see You can sail, but you won’t leave me Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee—see Calypso said that you’re his-tor-ee ⸻ [Final Chorus] [The biggest emotional release of the song. Full instrumentation returns, but not in triumph—in catharsis. “You won’t leave me” now means that Odysseus will live forever in Calypso’s memory. The performance should be powerful, heartbreaking, accepting, and ultimately compassionate rather than obsessive.] Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee—see You can sail, but you won’t leave me Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee—see Calypso said that you’re his-tor-ee Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee— …US… Caly, Caly, Odyss-ee— …US…
