The Gates of Eden

[Verse 1]
He drove his car down to a beach, and watched the people bathing
He climbed up upon an old broken wall, where he saw the sailboats sailing
He thought the storm would never come, and he would not be leaving
Without begging on his knees, at the Gates of Eden

[Verse 2]
The sun went down the moon came up, the waves began to swallow
A light that came down from the sky, where strangers seemed to follow
And all the lovers hand in hand, his lonelinеss was beaten

[Chorus]
To put down the drink, movе away from the window
What did you think, that you would be achieving
By leaving your friends, without really leaving

[Verse 3]
The morning came with blackened clouds, and winds from every corner
He sat alone and watched his world, become a little smaller
From his room he saw the light, it shone down like a beacon
His hands passed like a child, through the Gates of Eden
In his room as life was saved, he had the final reason

[Chorus]
To put down the drink, move away from the window
What did you think, that you would be achieving
By leaving your friends, at the Gates of Eden

[Outro]
At the Gates of Eden
At the Gates of Eden
