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

The heated and the holy

Oh they're sitting there on high

So secure with everything they're buying

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 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 any more

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

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 the union oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man

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

Oh....

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

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 have done everything we can

In the blood of Eden, so we 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
