If God Gave Eden To Eve

Musicians need writers and writers need musicians.

What would you expect of me

Would you tempt me, tease me

Would you rattle the tree

Easy living but

What do you dream of in perfect eternity?

If it had have been me

Would you give

For my forgiven misery

Is your peace without me.

(Chorus)

If God gave Eden to Eve

Would you 

Follow me out heavens door

If I’m not what you want

What did God create me for?

I’d let you eat from any tree

Best of times perfect memories

Paradise dreams nice

But I couldn’t close my eyes

If you weren’t

On the other side with me.

Pushed down and out

Guilts on me now

Would you still be my Eve

If it was all my fault.

(Chorus)

If God gave Eden to Eve

Would you 

Follow me out heavens door

If I’m not what you want

What did God create me for?

If we were cast out of Eden

For something so small 

I would drive you around Hell

Until we saw it all

Just meet me again

At the steeple

If you’ll have me

Together forever through it all.

If you had it all

Would you drop it

Cause you loved me more.

(Chorus)

If God gave Eden to Eve

Would you 

Follow me out heavens door

If I’m not what you want

What did God create me for?

(Bridge)

I’m more than fine with Eve

Outside looking in

At where it all began

So long as we are together

We always win.

 

When God finally let’s us back in

I think being free

On the outside is better 

Than being trapped within.

(Chorus)

If God gave Eden to Eve

Would you 

Follow me out heavens door

If I’m not what you want

What did God create me for?

If God gave Eden to Eve

I’d still be here

To be your man

From where all your love

Forever began.
