After the Flood


One day there will be nothing left to burn
The heart will be emptied of blood
But by and by the Earth will still turn
To the Good Lord’s plan after the flood

Will he make Adam and Eve again anew
And this time will he hide the tree
But what’s a garden without the truth in view
And if we are not tempted how can we be free

Fig and plum, apple, cherry and lime 
The harvest moon shines on the merry dance
Things will get well again maybe some time
I will give anything just for a single chance

Do you really think there’s something left to learn
My head is spinning round and round
Chins are wagging they look so stern
Like circus ponies moving up and down

If the man and the woman fell in love again
Will there be some spare change for me
Mend the poor hearts that were broken in vain
Lord give me the strength to let things be
of Love
