From Eden

Hozier · Hozier [Deluxe Version] [2014]

Babe, there's something tragic about you

Something so magic about you

Don't you agree?



Babe, there's something lonesome about you

Something so wholesome about you

Get closer to me



No tired sighs, no rolling eyes, no irony

No 'who cares', no vacant stares, no time for me



Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago

Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword

Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me I should know

I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door



Babe, there's something wretched about this

Something so precious about this

Oh what a sin/where to begin



[Live version:]

Babe, there's something broken about

But I might be open about this

Oh what a sin



To the strand a picnic plan for you and me

A rope in hand for your other man to hang from a tree



Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago

Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword

Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me I should know

I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door



Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago

Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword

Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me I should know

I slithered here from Eden just to hide outside your door
