Paula Cole - Garden of Eden lyrics

Here I am, a black-eyed bird remaining silent
I simply watch your little
Life from high above
Wanting to call you, wanting to sing
Inside your ears and lips and eyes and soul
I dig my grave behind the gates of Babylon

There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart garden of Eden
In your earthly arms

Here I stand, a serpent queen of the garden
I'm beckoning but you ignore my siren song
Oh, I long to touch you
To step inside your sacred gate
I'll dig my grave in the
Mine of golden bible snake

There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart garden of Eden
In your earthly arms

The black-eyed bird is dying
The queen is dead
She'll never step foot in Eden (Oh)

Garden, Eden, Eden garden, Eden, Eden

There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart garden of Eden
In your earthly arms garden of Eden
In your distant heart garden of Eden
In your earthly arms
