After the Fall

©1991 Music:Tim Burke/lyrics:Jan Burke

lo-fi play hi-fi play

There's a tension in Paradise
Some legless piper demanding his price
If my lips should touch yours, I'll lose it all
We'll be Adam and Eve sometime after the Fall

Eden is closing, It's time to go
You say you're naked, but how did you know?
Tried to reach God; He's not taking my calls.
We're just Adam and Eve sometime after the Fall

But I smell the garden's delights in your hair
I remember the night I discovered you there
I dance with the angels whenever you're near
Your kiss steals my reason but never my fear

Without an address, no letters reach home
Without your love, will my heart ever roam?
When this is over, will you once recall
Being Adam and Eve sometime after the Fall?
