When you walk in the garden In the garden of Eden With a beautiful woman And you know how you care And the voice in the garden In the Garden of Eden Tells you she is forbidden Can you leave her there When you're yearning for loving And she touches your hand And your heart starts a-pounding And you're feeling so grand Can you leave her to heaven And obey the command Can you walk from the garden Does your heart understand When you walk in the garden In the garden of Eden With a beautiful woman And you know how you care And the voice in the garden In the Garden of Eden Tells you she is forbidden Can you leave her there When you're yearning for loving And she touches your hand And your heart starts a-pounding And you're feeling so grand Can you leave her to heaven And obey the command Can you walk from the garden Does your heart understand When you walk in the garden In the garden of Eden With a beautiful woman And you know how you care And the voice in the garden In the Garden of Eden Tells you she is forbidden Can you leave her there Can you leave her there Can you leave her there Can you leave her there
