Eve, The Apple Of My Eye

You left it, I sent it, I want it back
You left it, I sent it, I want it back

If I had you here I'd clip your wings
Snap you up and leave you sprawlin' on my pin
But this plan of mine is oh, so very lame
And can't you see the grass is greener where it rains?

You left, I died, I went and you cried
You came, I think but I never really know
I've served my time, I've watched you climb
The wrong incline but what do I know

Accept it, don't let it turn the screw
Accept it and let it scream back at you

Now this applies equally to you and I
The only thing we share is the same sky
These empty metaphors, they're all in vain
Like can't you see the grass is greener where it rains?

You left, I died, I went and you cried
You came, I think but I never really know
I've served my time, I've watched you climb
The wrong incline but what do I know

In the garden, snake was a charmin'
Eve said, let's give it a try
Now, lead us not into temptation
But no matter how hard I try

When in the garden, snake is charmin'
Eve says, let's give it a try
Eve is the apple of my eye
Eve is the apple of my eye, Eve is the apple

And I lie behind you
And I cradle you in the palm of me
And I pat your hair down
I think will we sink or swim?
'Cause we could do either on a whim
