Eve`S Bayou

Sweet, solemn, gentle, silent shadows
Surface of still water reflects love, hope
Evening spreads her doors blinding the dying
Sun w/ flashes of lights pink, purple, indigo
fiery, fine, low, high
Eve`s bayou lay like gentle Ruth
I don`t dare to enter her forbidden meadow
Something must be kept hidden
Something must be kept unexplored
First time I kissed she cut me and bled
Then she cared me w/ smile and band-aid
Eve`s bayou my name is Sioux,Zulu
Out of the Womb of Africa;out of the womb of
Secrets fire and water I`ve come,I`ve come
to warm you,warm you and welcome
Don`t go to war,don`t cheat,lie
Never lust,sin,crave,hit,hate,hail,haze
Naked you come,naked you`ll go
There`s no denying of the Death`s toll
Eve`s bayou,moonbeam penetrates you soft,slow
