<br>

ADAM<br>

All that I had to give, I gave that boy<br>

Once he was young and once he brought my heart such joy<br>

He'd ride my shoulders and 'cross the fields we'd roam<br>

I still can see those moments like yesterday<br>

I was a fool to think they'd make him want to stay<br>

At home<br>

<br>

YOUNG CAIN AND ABEL<br>

One two three<br>

Owls are in the tree<br>

Four five six<br>

Foxes in the sticks<br>

Six five four<br>

Goslings on the shore<br>

Three two one<br>

Now we all go home<br>

<br>

One two three<br>

Owls are in the tree<br>

Four five six<br>

Foxes in the sticks<br>

Six five four<br>

Goslings on the shore<br>

Three two one<br>

Now we all go home<br>

<br>

ADAM (simultaneously)<br>

It's time to make a home<br>

Heaven knows the life's been hard<br>

Summers brief and arid<br>

Winters bleak and numb<br>

<br>

Look what we call home<br>

These old walls are stained and scarred<br>

<br>

EVE<br>

I can still remember <br>

What each scar was from<br>

<br>

ADAM<br>

You could call it run down<br>

<br>

EVE<br>

Worn out<br>

<br>

ADAM<br>

Threadbare<br>

<br>

BOTH<br>

And I guess you'd come<br>

Close to home<br>

Close to home<br>

<br>

ADAM<br>

And I remember, in someone else's garden long ago<br>

We had all we could eat<br>

<br>

EVE<br>

But it seems the fruit our own hands grow<br>

Somehow tastes twice as sweet<br>

<br>

ABEL<br>

Six five four<br>

Goslings on the shore<br>

Three two one<br>

Now we all go home<br>

<br>

ADAM<br>

On this barren plot<br>

<br>

ABEL<br>

One two three<br>

Owls are in the tree<br>

<br>

ADAM<br>

We'll plant our wheat and dig our well<br>

<br>

ABEL<br>

Four five six<br>

Foxes in the sticks<br>

<br>

ADAM<br>

And we'll be a family<br>

<br>

ABEL<br>

Six five four<br>

Goslings on the shore<br>

<br>

ADAM<br>

Steady as a star<br>

<br>

EVE<br>

Look at what we've got<br>

<br>

ADAM AND ABEL<br>

Ba ba bum, ba ba ba ba bum<br>

<br>

EVE<br>

Only what we've made ourselves<br>

<br>

ADAM AND ABEL<br>

Eight nine ten, now we start again<br>

<br>

EVE<br>

Though it's next to nothing<br>

Look how rich we are<br>

<br>

ADAM<br>

Funny now how Eden doesn't seem so far<br>

<br>

ADAM AND EVE<br>

Come sit besides me in the dying light<br>

What storms the morning brings, we'll weather all right<br>

Your hand in my hand<br>

And as we sit here, huddled in the gloom<br>

Paradise seems strangely close<br>

Close to home<br>

<br>

ABEL<br>

Ba ba bum, ba ba ba ba bum<br>

<br>

ADAM AND EVE<br>

Close to home<br>

<br>

ABEL<br>

Three two one<br>

Now we all go <br>

<br>

ADAM, EVE, AND ABEL<br>

Home<br>

<br>
