Joy Williams Child of Eden song lyrics

Eden was perfection a beautiful dream

There was no pretending everything was as it seemed

But she took the lust for life delivered it to man

Caving into the lies all the hiding began

That's part, part of who I am

I'm a child of Eden I'm a child of Eden, I have been

But I won't look back it's just my past

The story doesn't end for this child of Eden

I've had Eve's eyes of jealousy and shame

And Adam's disposition to worry and to blame

But I've had days when I found more in me

Forgiveness and mercy and I was truly free

I know, I know that's who I am

I'm a child of Eden I'm a child of Eden, I have been

But I won't look back it's just my past

The story doesn't end for this child of Eden

Oh, don't let me forget where I was without You

Don't let me forget the pain that You went through

Don't let me forget that I became Yours

When You spread out Your arms for me

I'm a child of Eden I'm a child, child of Eden, I have been

But I won't look back it's just my past

The story doesn't end for this child of Eden

I'm a child of Eden I'm a child of Eden, I have been

I won't look back it's just my past

The story doesn't end for this child of Eden

For this child of Eden

I'm a child of Eden

Child of Eden

Story doesn't end oh all right

Child of Eden
