East of Eden |
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 |
