Lyrics Bobby McFerrin

Bobby McFerrin

The Garden

And there was day

And there was night

There was dark

And there was light

There was the earth

There was the sky

And there in the tree

There crawled a lie

There in Eden

There was good

There in the garden

Where the Tree of Life stood

There the snake was

There the pain

And we're tryin' to get back

To the garden again

There was fire

There was rain

There was talk

There was shame

They were moanin'

They were cryin'

But there still is a glimmer

In the big man's eye
