Eve


by Chantal Kreviazuk
from the album "Colour, Moving and Still"

Eve is gone again, back to her palace, back to her island.
Eve can smile again and run round the hedges in the Garden of Eden.
Run the way you did before the nightmares.
Run just like before the overkill.
Run the way you did it's over darling.
Oh, could I be so gentle.
Oh, so soft and tender.
Oh and could I forgive.
And could I die in my mother's arms like her.

Eve's a child again, sing her a lullaby, read to her every night.
Eve's in heaven, plenty of friends are there, no one the enemy.
Run the way you did before the nightmares.
Run just like before the overkill.
Run the way you did it's over darling.
Oh, could I be so gentle.
Oh, so soft and tender.
Oh and could I forgive.
And could I die in my mother's arms like her.
