The apple you gave me was too much to contain Her purple skin set me and he was not to blame He tried to confuse me with windfalls on the floor But I've heard all about it a million times before I hear the wolves singing and holy lullabies And the lions come a running attracted by your cries The gardens are vanished and someone hit the door I said it would happen a million times before Today we go searching the dust of tranquility Look back on the mother we tried so hard to flee Under the waves the story moved on the floor I saw what had happened a million years before In the beginning shall be as in the end And in the between times we call upon to attend Repeat the words of love and peace once more I know that I've said them a million times before *
