Lyrics Eve (Live in NYC - 1993) - Dream Theater

Chapter one
Once upon a time, and a very good time it was
There was a moo cow coming down along the road

So he came himself in weakness, not in power
And he sent thee, a creature in his stead
With the creature's comeliness and luster suited to our state
And now thy very face and form, dear mother
Speak to us of the eternal
Not like earthly beauty, dangerous to look upon
But like the morning star which is thy emblem
Bright and musical, breathing purity
Telling of heaven and infusing peace

Oh, harbinger of day
Oh, light of the pilgrim
Lead us still as thou hast led
In the dark night, across the bleak wilderness
Guide us on to our Lord Jesus
Guide us home

"Tower of Ivory" they used to say, "House of Gold"
How could a woman be a tower of ivory or a house of gold?
