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
They're heated and they're 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 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
<Interlude>
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've done everything we can
In the blood of eden
Saw the 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
