"The Watcher" lyrics

"The Watcher"

And at night I'd go and see
Through the hills in between the trees
That's where I'd watch the daughters of Adam dance
And I brought her to my room
And I unveiled the truth
Disobeyed my father's one command
Traded heaven for love
They call that the fall of man

When the moonlight was cold and clean
East of Eden where no one sees
I taught her how to change the master plan
And I held her in my arms
Laid her down underneath the stars
And something deep inside me came and went
Traded heaven for love
They call that the fall of man

So I took her by the hand
And out of the promised land
Now I understand what Adam did
Traded heaven for love
They call that the fall of man
Traded heaven for love
And I'd trade it all again
