Blood Of Eden - Regina Spektor Lyrics - Scratch My Back & I'll Scratch Yours - Peter Gabriel

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 anymore 

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 

Ohh 

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 

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 union 

Of the woman and 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 

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
