Took my love to the rock of ages, We looked down on the country wide, Red glow in the tree tops, Cities burning from the changes We lay down, put the coins in our eyes.
And it looked like Nightfall Over Eden, The hungry sky, the shifting sand, Have stole the footprints, Stilled the voice of reason, Nightfall Over Eden, take my hand.
And the children all come running, Got the sun in a box, got the moon on a string, But you poison the heartland, Like you poison the dream, In the days before the flood We are children of the rain.
And it looked like Nightfall Over Eden, The hungry sky, the shifting sand, Have stole the footprints, Stilled the voice of reason, Nightfall Over Eden, take my hand.
And the leaves fall from the tree, Falling gold till they cover me, Cain built a city on the open plain Now his heart is broke And he wants to be home again.
Follow me down to the rock of ages, Bring your car, your money and your clothes, We'll stand naked as the day we were born, Then we fly like avenging angels Down into the valley below.
And it looked like Nightfall Over Eden, The hungry sky, the shifting sand, Have stole the footprints, Stilled the voice of reason, Nightfall Over Eden, take my hand
