|
I caught sight of my reflection |
|
I caught it in the window |
|
I saw the darkness in my heart |
|
I saw the signs of my undoing |
|
They had been there from the start |
|
And the darkness still has work to do |
|
The knotted chord's untying |
|
They're heated and they're holy |
|
Oh they're sitting there on high |
|
So secure with everything they're buying |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
In the blood of Eden |
|
Lie the woman and the man |
|
With the man in the woman |
|
And the woman in the man |
|
In the blood of Eden |
|
Lie the woman and the man |
|
We wanted the union |
|
Oh the union of the woman |
|
The woman and the man |
|
My grip is surely slipping |
|
I think I've lost my hold |
|
Yes, I think I've lost my hold |
|
I cannot get insurance anymore |
|
They don't take credit, only gold |
|
Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see |
|
You hold so tightly in your hand |
|
And all the while the distance grows between you and me |
|
I do not understand |
|
[Chorus] |
|
At my request, you take me in |
|
In that tenderness, I am floating away |
|
No certainty, nothing to rely on |
|
Holding still for a moment |
|
What a moment this is |
|
Oh for a moment of forgetting, a moment of bliss |
|
Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy |
|
I can hear the distant thunder |
|
Of a million unheard souls |
|
Of a million unheard souls |
|
Watch each one reach for creature comfort |
|
For the filling of their holes |
|
In the blood of Eden |
|
Lie the woman and the man |
|
With the man in the woman |
|
And the woman in the man |
|
In the blood of Eden |
|
We wanted the union |
|
Of the woman and the man |
|
In the blood of Eden |
|
Lie the woman and the man |
|
I feel the man in the woman |
|
And the woman in the man |
|
In the blood of Eden |
|
Lie the woman and the man |
|
I feel the man in the woman |
|
And the woman in the man |
|
In the blood of Eden |
|
We've done everything we can |
|
In the blood of Eden |
|
Saw the end as we began |
|
With the man in the woman |
|
And the woman in the man |
|
It was all for the union |
|
Oh, the union of the woman, the woman and the man. |

[extra lyrics from the "film mix"] |
|
The blood of eden keeps running through me |
|
running through my veins |
|
the blood of eden keeps rushing through me |
|
when I'm sure there's none that remains |
|
the blood of eden keeps running through me |
|
I can feel it in my bones |
|
that blood of eden keeps rushing through me |
|
taking back what it owns |
