Jerry van Kooten,
Twelfth Night

East Of Eden (version 2)
it seems that paradise
has been well locked and barred
to all the issues of Adam
it seems that children must
pay for their parents crimes
until they wish they never had them

the clouds are fabric balls
the earth machinery
to gather power from the stars
each of us has a gateway
through which infinity calls
to touch each victim through their scars

we can't deny existance
is all cause and effect
who knows for sure where it is leading
we are walking through
a kingdom that is found
out here somewhere East of Eden

East of Eden
East of Eden
East of Eden
East of Eden

Notes
Lyrics written by Geoff Mann.
Released on Live And Let Live. Compared to the versions on Smiling At Grief and the Eleanor Rigby single, this version has three extra lines at the beginning of the last verse.
