“Eve” creatively intertwines a consistent allusion to the fall of mankind in the first chapter of the Bible (Genesis) wherein Adam and Eve are expelled from the garden from Eden by God with a clearly personal reflection on the worth of some relationship she has with the “he” of the song.
Just as A+E...
[Intro]
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
It only takes one man to fall
[Verse 1]
Take it from my garden (My leaves fall)
I'll infinitely grow
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
Write it on my body
Flowers in the snow
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
[Chorus]
Does he give more than he takes away? (Yes)
Does he say thanks before he walks away? (Yes)
Do you give more when he takes away? (Yes)
Do you say thanks when he walks away? (Do you say thanks when he walk away?)
Does he love pain like he's never lost? (Yes)
Does he love now that the daylight lost? (Yes)
Do you take loans to pick up the cost? (Yes)
Do you think sex is a game of trust?
[Verse 2]
Take it from my fountain
Let the water flow
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall (It only takes one man to fall)
Tease him in the orchard (My leaves fall)
Apples in the snow
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
[Chorus]
Does he give more than he takes away? (Yes)
Does he say thanks before he walks away? (Yes)
Do you give more when he takes away? (Yes)
Do you say thanks when he walks away? (Do you say thanks when he walk away?)
Does he love pain like he's never lost? (Yes)
Does he love now that the daylight lost? (Yes)
Do you take loans to pick up the cost? (Yes)
Do you think sex is a game of trust?
[Bridge]
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
[Chorus]
Does he give more than he takes away? (Yes)
Does he say thanks before he walks away? (Yes)
Do you give more when he takes away? (Yes)
Do you say thanks when he walks away? (Do you say thanks when he walk away?)
Does he love pain like he's never lost? (Yes)
Does he love now that the daylight lost? (Yes)
Do you take loans to pick up the cost? (Yes)
Do you think sex is a game of trust?
[Outro]
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
It only takes one man to fall
My leaves fall
