  • When the first light brightened the dark
    Before the breaking of the human heart
    There was You and there was me
    Innocence was all I knew
    'Cause all I had to know was You
    We were running underneath the trees

    I wanna see you face to face
    Where being in your arms is the permanent state
    I want it like it was back then
    I wanna be in Eden

    I remember how You'd call my name
    And I would meet You at the garden gate
    How the glory of Your love would shine
    And I remember when the stars were young
    You breathed life into my lungs
    Oh I never felt so alive

    I wanna see you face to face
    Where being in your arms is the permanent state
    I want it like it was back then
    I wanna be in Eden

    To be naked and unashamed
    In a sweet down pour of innocent rain
    I want it like it was back then
    I wanna be in Eden

    Where my eyes can see the colors of glory
    My hands can reach the heaven before me
    Oh, my God I wanna be there with You
    Where our hearts will beat with joy together
    And love will reign forever and ever
    Oh my God I wanna be there with You

    I wanna see you face to face
    Where being in your arms is the permanent state
    I want it like it was back then
    I wanna be in Eden

    To be naked and unashamed
    In a sweet down pour of innocent rain
    I want it like it was back then
    I wanna be in Eden Publisher: MUSIC SERVICES, INC.
