Eve & Paradise Lost (ARTE Live at Turner Contemporary)

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
I took the fall for us, babe, never saw it as a debt
I've got this gut feeling that somehow only I will pay for it
We gave into temptation, shame came, we pulled on some clothes
I've got this gut feeling, I'll shoulder this fiction for us both

[Pre-Chorus]
I will always take the fall for us
Though we both ate the fruit, my love
Though we both ate the fruit

[Chorus]
When they say I was made for you
I love you so, but still, it's hard to get my head around it
When they say I was made from you
I bite my tongue, and hope my heart can get its head around

[Post-Chorus]
Our paradise lost, our paradise lost

[Verse 2]
So we hid there in that garden, fruit was drippin' down our chins
Who'd have known that I'd be carryin' our babies and our sins?
No one warned what it feels like, had no mother, sister, friend
You said, "Calm down," rolled your eyes at pain you'll never comprehend

[Pre-Chorus]
I will always take the fall for us
Though we both ate the fruit, my love
Though we both ate the fruit

[Chorus]
When they say I was made for you
I love you so, but still, it's hard to get my head around it
When they say I was made from you
I bite my tongue, and hope my heart can get its head around

[Post-Chorus]
Our paradise lost, our paradise lost
Our paradise lost, guess I'll bear the cost

[Outro]
Of our paradise lost, guess I'll bear the cost
