Eve & Paradise Lost

I took the fall for us, babe

Never saw it as a debt

I got this gut feeling that somehow

Only I will pay for it

We gave into temptation

Shame came, we pulled on some clothes

I got this gut feeling I'll shoulder

This fiction for us both

I will always take the fall for us

Though we both ate the fruit, my love

Though we both ate the fruit

When they say I was made for you

I love you so, but still it's hard to get my head around it

When they say I was made from you

I bite my tongue and hope my heart can get its head around

Our paradise lost

Our paradise lost

So we hid there in that garden

Fruit was dripping down our chins

Who'd have known that I'd be carrying our babies and our sins

No one warned what it feels like

Had no mother, sister, friend

You said, "Calm down", rolled your eyes at pain you'll never comprehend

I will always take the fall for us

Though we both ate the fruit, my love

Though we both ate the fruit

When they say I was made for you

I love you so, but still it's hard to get my head around it

When they say I was made from you

I bite my tongue and hope my heart can get its head around

Our paradise lost

Our paradise lost

Our paradise lost

Guess I'll bear the cost

Our paradise lost

Guess I'll bear the cost
