East of Eden

歌詞

The world goes mad around us As I stand by and watch you sleep In the hope that harm won't find us I pray the lord our souls to keep Does he see us here Are we precious in his sight Or are we merely dust on this tiny ball He hurled out into the night Somewhere east of eden From the first time that we stumble We learn that nothing is assured However hopelessly we tumble It's by the grace of god that we endure If there's some better place Far from all that's wrong But if god in his wisdom Saw fit to put you here Then here is where I belong Somewhere east of eden Maybe he laughs in our face By way of the cold hard fact That these moments framed in time and space Are the same ones nothing can bring back Maybe we exist and wonder through this world Just to lead each other home From somewhere east of eden somewhere east of eden
