LYRICS:
You can’t borrow time that’s already gone
Or maybe you can, just not for too long
Shadows in the doorway, did you come for me?
Somewhere East of Eden in a dreamless sleep
Just like a note in a far away song
I drifted through the border of the setting sun
I was thinking of the fire that lives in your eyes
Somewhere East of Eden where forgiveness lies
Ain’t it just like the night to have a haunted son
Born inside the darkness before darkness itself was born
Somewhere East of Eden in a cold, driving rain
You wind down the window and then you take it in again
I’m stuck in the middle, can’t change lanes
I'm looking for a smile that won’t dissolve in the rain
There’s shapes in the wasteland that chill you to the bone
If you go east of Eden, you better not go alone
I’d like to change the weather, but it’s beyond my control
Some folks round here never did have a soul
I got my face against the wind, I’m running all the way
Somewhere East of Eden, West of the plains
I’m thinking about your face and the things it might say
You came in deep and lonesome, you're leaving the same way
There’s some kind of message coming in on the wire
Everything round here gets re-born in fire
There was a certain darkness, I knew it by name
I never really could tell from which way it came
You said those secret words, heard by my inner ear
Somewhere East of Eden you might disappear……
Ain’t it just like the night to have a haunted son
Born inside the darkness before darkness itself was born
Somewhere East of Eden in a cold, driving rain
You wind down the window and then you take it in again

Definitely got the Dire Straits vibe with a Latin beat on this one. Great lyrics, love this John 👏👏🎸🎸❤❤
Thanks Gary. Yeah, ai wanted to try a different rhythm so hit the Bossa button on tge keyboard... gives it that Latin feel. Definitely has a Dire Straits type vibe. 😀

Thanks so much Teron. Glad you found it relaxing. First song I've tried with a Bossa beat I think. 😀
