Back to Little Eden Songtext

von Henning Kvitnes

Please don′t slam the phone on me, babe
'Cause all I′m taking is your time
You can spare a few minutes
Before I will get of your line

Please don't hate me for calling
In the middle of the night
I know there's someone′s listening
Well, I guess somehow he′s got the right

Take me back to little Eden
Let me build it up again
If I cannot be your lover
Then I cannot be your friend

Put me back inside your paintings
Let the colours drive this time
I'm trying to be patient
But I′m running outta time

I know I never saw the little girl in you
I never let her dreams come through
I never really gave her a chance to try her wings
Come home with a morning dew

I know that you despise the kindness
That I tried to show these days
But as you become my main obsession, babe
Well, I no longer know how to behave

Take me back to little Eden
Let me build it up again
If I cannot be your lover
Then I cannot be your friend

Put me back inside your paintings
Let the colours drive this time
Well, I'm trying to be patient
But I′m running out of time

So when our hurting days are over
I try to stand the tall
But you gotta stand beside me
Make sure that I won't fall

Don′t believe in all those rumours
I know you hear about me
Some people, they never are so happy
That's when they talk about all the things they've never seen

Take me back to little Eden
Let me build it up again
If I cannot be your lover
Then I cannot be your friend

Take me back inside your paintings
Let the colours drive this time
Well, I′m trying to be patient
But I′m running out of time

So when our hurting days are over
I try to stand the tall
But you gotta stand beside me
Make sure that I won't fall
Make sure that I won′t fall
(Hmm-hmm)
Make sure that I won't fall
