Accept it, don't let it turn the screw
Snap you up and leave you sprawlin' on my pin
When in the garden, snake is charmin'
But this plan of mine is oh, so very lame
These empty metaphors, they're all in vain
In the garden, snake was a charmin'
You came, I think but I never really know
Eve is the apple of my eye, Eve is the apple
You left, I died, I went and you cried
Now this applies equally to you and I
And I lie behind you
Eve said, let's give it a try
You left, I died, I went and you cried
Like can't you see the grass is greener where it rains?
Eve says, let's give it a try
And I pat your hair down
You came, I think but I never really know
The wrong incline but what do I know
The wrong incline but what do I know
Now, lead us not into temptation
The only thing we share is the same sky
And I cradle you in the palm of me
If I had you here I'd clip your wings
Accept it and let it scream back at you
I've served my time, I've watched you climb
I think will we sink or swim?
And can't you see the grass is greener where it rains?
But no matter how hard I try
Eve is the apple of my eye
I've served my time, I've watched you climb
