Last Time I Saw Eden

歌詞

The last time I saw Eden The garden was in flames The smoke was rising up to heaven's floor The last time I saw Eden The gates were bound with chains The angel cried, "You'll enter here no more" And I just can't get it out of my mind That vision still sends chills up my spine Like a ghost that I can never leave behind The last time I saw Eden The last time I saw Eden I was waiting to be born Floating in a sea of purest light When I heard the thunder There was dust upon my lips My flesh was stinging with the chill of night And they tell me it was all a crazy dream But in my heart, I don't know what they mean I can't forget how very real it seemed The last time I saw Eden The last time I saw Eden I was standing in the rain Down a lonesome, broken railroad track I met a fallen angel Waiting for a northbound train He said, "I fear it's never coming back" And now even in these crowds, I feel alone An orphan always aching for home I'm longing for the mystery I have known The last time I saw Eden
