You were not the first man to make my heart skip beats To walk upon the earth and to sweep me off my feet There was a man I met first who turned out to be a snake Ever since mankind has been cursed, I've had constant heartache In the beginning there was you and there was me You let the light in and I'm starting to see Throughout the ages I never thought I could But now I just might say that it is good He spun me a bad apple, rotten to the core But maybe now that you're here I don't need him anymore You're not God's first creation but I'm starting to believe Maybe you'll be my salvation, maybe I can be your Eve God made the world from upon his throne Then made Adam and alone Adam roamed Ol' Adam was hurtin' for a little company He said "God you created the land and the seas The mountaintops, the birds and the bees Can you whip up a little somethin' for me? And God put Adam in a deep, deep sleep God reached down and rolled up his sleeves Took out Adam's rib and with it made Eve And together they lived in God's garden in ease 'Til Eve started eatin' them apples from trees But that's another story
