Nigel Kennedy - From Adam To Eve lyrics

(Nigel Kennedy/Brix E Smith/Stephen Duffy)

The night above the street hung like a cloak

The black ribbons of rain began to soak

And Mary Magdalene cracked a joke

Lost among the scriptures that she wrote

Johnny Apollo before the charge

A chaos of regrets a human cage

In Georgiana Street Camden Town

The years of shame were cut away

The buses and the cabs are slowing down

That change each moment of this day

Look at me, see what I've become

Look at me, feminine

Look at me, see what I've become

Look at me, I'm feminine, feminine

He kneels above the line as if to pray

Take him to the hills above the bay

Mechanical pianos fill his head

I'm proud of being so feminine

Another year like this and he'll be dead

The snake that shed it's final skin

I'M NOT THE GIRL I WANT TO BE

I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE ME

THE BOY WILL NOT BECOME A MAN

APOLLO'S GOT ANOTHER PLAN

Look at me, see what I've become

Look at me, I'm feminine

Look at me, see what I've become

Look at me, I'm feminine, feminine

Look at me, touch my skin

Look at me, I'm feminine

Look at me, touch my skin

Look at me, I'm feminine, feminine, feminine,

feminine, feminine, feminine

The night above the street hangs like a cloak

Black ribbons of rain began to soak

Johnny Apollo a man no more

The years of pain were cut away

I'M NOT THE MAN I WAS BEFORE

That change each moment of this day

I'M NOT THE MAN I WAS BEFORE

The woman in your life your God your soul
