Adam and Eve

   This was a really good song, and I just thought you should hear it. I was writing about the Great Betrayal which is what Adam and Eve did is referred to in the book called Circle Trilogy by Ted Dekker, and man it was so sad. How they had it all and they needed more, and now they are kicked out of the Garden. Next blog I'll probably put up my fan fiction for the Great Betrayal.
Here are the Lyrics for this song


If I could, I'd rewrite history
I'd choose differently; if I could, I would
I'd leave out the part where I broke Your heart
In the garden's shade, fix the mess I made
If I could, I would

If I could, close my eyes and then
Dance around again; if I could, I would
Be who You adored, why did I need more?
When beauty was not trained to hide behind my shame
If I could, I would.

Can You hear us cry?
Wishing we could turn back time
To feel Your breath when branches move
Take one more sunset walk with You
Must each tomorrow hold
Such brokenness untold?
Can't imagine how You could
See all of me and say it's good

If I could hold one memory
It would surely be how You walked with us
I'd go back in time, un-tell my first lie
And let Love's injury heal in spite of me

Can You hear us cry?
Wishing we could turn back time
To feel Your breath when branches move
Take one more sunset walk with You
Must each tomorrow hold
Such brokenness untold?
Can't imagine how You could
See all of me and say it's good

It is good. It is good.
You still love us more than we believed You could
Could there be something more?
Will it ever be the way it was before?
Lyrics By: Matthew West & Leigh Nash Nordeman/Herms

  2. Black has an interesting combination of Adam and Eve, 1,000 year period, and Satan getting his followers mustered, and then they go to war and they get burned with fire!
