[Verse 1]
Diane and Jack went to the movies
They went to see Richard Pryor
Screamin' on his knees for his lover
How could I been wrong about you?
How could I been so wrong about you?
[Chorus]
Eden is burning (Eden is burning)
I can see it from my window (Eden is burning)
Better take it to the water
Eden is burning, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Eden is burning, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Thinking of Havana
Eating cream and bananas
You and me in the sunshine
How could I been wrong about you?
How could I been so wrong about you?
[Chorus]
Eden is burning (Eden is burning)
I can see it from my window (Eden is burning)
Better take it to the water
Eden is burning, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Eden is burning, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
How could I been wrong about you?
How could I been so wrong about you?
With love on our side
With love on our side
Hey
[Verse 3]
Here's the masquerade of our living
Well, I hope it makes you feel better
It's for our own protection
I thought we were forever, me and you
But nothin's forever, I guess it's true
[Chorus]
That Eden is burning (Eden is burning)
I can see it from my window (Eden is burning)
Better take it to the water
Eden is burning, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Eden is burning, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Eden is burning (Eden is burning)
I can see it from my window (Eden is burning)
Better take it to the water
Eden is burning, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Eden is burning, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
