In My Defence

In My Defence

Vincent Burke

So long ago,
I can see the apple on the tree,
Back there in Eden,
I can see it calling out to me,

Someone is waving good bye
So goodbye...

So long ago,
Long before they pinned it all on me,
I still recall,
She would let me coil about her knees,

Softly she whispered 'goodnight'
So goodnight...

Back there in paradise
She reached out to take her bite.

In my defence
Did you want to stay forever young?
Back there in Eden
She could see the flicker of my tongue

Someone is screaming goodbye
So goodbye...

Back when the world was young
She Fell for my serpent song
But shouldn't you ask for more?
Well, what is an apple for?
