Gates of Eden Songtext
von Bob Seger

I was in the tender mercies of the breaking dawn
I was somehow in a place that made me want to go along
I remember thinking, all of this must have a reason
I remember thinking, maybe I should look beyond


The night came on like thunder, lightning split the purple skies
My whole day had been a journey, sorting through the truth and lies
I remember searching, longing for a deeper meaning
And it hit me like a diamond bullet, right between the eyes

And I believed everything you said
Every paragraph and every word I read
Calling into question everything that I believe in
Huddled with the masses, stranded at the Gates of Eden
I was huddled with the masses, stranded at the Gates of Eden
