Текст песни Peter Gabriel - Blood of Eden

I caught sight of my reflection,
I caught it in the window.
I saw the darkness in my heart,
I saw the signs of my undoing.
They had been there from the start.
And the darkness still has work to do.
The knotted chord's untying.
They're heated and they're holy
Oh they're sitting there on high.
So secure with everything they're buying.

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man.

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man.
We wanted the union.
Oh, the union of the woman,
The woman and the man.

My grip is surely slipping,
I think I've lost my hold.
Yes, I think I've lost my hold.
I cannot get insurance anymore.
They don't take credit, only gold.
Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see?
You hold so tightly in your hand,
And all the while the distance grows between you and me.
I do not understand.

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man.

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man.
We wanted the union.
Oh, the union of the woman,
The woman and the man.

At my request, you take me in
In that tenderness, I am floating away.
No certainty, nothing to rely on,
Holding still for a moment.
What a moment this is?
Oh, for a moment of forgetting, a moment of bliss
Hey

I can hear the distant thunder
Of a million unheard souls,
Of a million unheard souls.
Watch each one reach for creature comfort,
For the filling of their holes.

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man.

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man.
We wanted the union.
Oh, the union of the woman,
The woman and the man.

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man.
I feel the man in the woman
And the woman in the man.

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man.
I feel the man in the woman
And the woman in the man.

In the blood of Eden
We've done everything we can.
In the blood of Eden
Saw the end as we began
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man.
It was all for the union,
Oh, the union of the woman,
The woman and the man.
