lyrics

Exiles From Eden (Glenn Cardier)

Would you walk with me
Down on Station Street?
If I knocked upon your door
Would it be trick or treat?
Would you turn away
If we chanced to meet?
Would there be a place
Where all shall be forgiven?

Well, I wonder now,
Did you have your doubts?
Did you ever question just
What it was all about?
Oh, and in the end
Would it all play out
As if from a dream
We’d been awoken?

Was it long ago,
Was it far away?
Would it seem like it
Had happened only yesterday?
Well, it must admit that
Still you take my breath away -
I will talk of times when
Hearts were never broken.

Would I say it was
Such a perfect love
Or would we agree that
Close enough was good enough?
Could we pick it up
From where we left off
As we sing the songs
Of those who are forsaken?

If it falls apart,
Well now, them’s the breaks -
And I’ll be the first to say
That I made my mistakes -
Oh, but there were times
When it got all too much to take -
Maybe we just could not see
For looking.

Would you walk with me
From the cul-de-sac?
Could we try to separate
The fiction from the fact?
Knowing all along
There’s no turning back,
As we laugh it off
Like nothing ever happened.

Was it long ago,
Was it far away?
Would it seem like it
Had happened only yesterday?
We are exiles from Eden,
Be that as it may -
We’ll come to a place
Where all shall be forgiven.
We'll come to a place
Where all shall be forgiven.

Glenn Cardier image

Glenn Cardier Sydney, Australia

Post 2000, Glenn Cardier’s re-emergence as a songwriter/performer of real distinction has been nothing short of extraordinary. In typical single-minded fashion, he writes, performs and produces his music. Onstage, there are the trademark flashes of dark humour and thumping rockabilly/blues. But underlying it all are the songs. Happy/sad songs. Sweet/crazy songs. Cardier songs. CDs on the website. ... more
