You can take all that there is <br />But don’t touch the tree of life <br />All that I have is for you <br />But if you do one day you will die <br /> <br />I just want to know <br />I just want to know <br />Was it her the tree of life <br />Where once walked two souls so long ago <br /> <br />In the Garden of Eden <br />Where two worlds collide <br />I just want to know, I just want to know <br />Where once walked two souls <br /> <br />Was it her the fire in her eyes <br />Was it he that burned inside <br />I just want to know, I just want to know <br />Was it her the tree of life <br /> <br />Was it pools of green <br />Or was it pools of eyes of blue <br />Or was it pools of eyes of brown <br />That knocked his world right straight down <br /> <br />Was it passion beyond imagination <br />Such as the world had never seen <br />Was it her the tree of life <br />Was it her when they meant that tree <br /> <br />Did he hold her just like this <br />Did the whole world and all time not exist <br />I just want to know, I just want to know <br />Is where we go, where once walked two souls <br /> <br />In the Garden of Eden <br />From the beginning of all time <br />Was it the same as I hold you now <br />As I hold you as mine <br /> <br />Did he see the fire in her eyes <br />Did he feel the burning, burning inside <br />I just want to know, I just want to know <br />Was it like so, where once walked two souls <br /> <br />Did he hold her like I do you <br />Did he feel a passion so true <br />Did he know his garden was through <br />Did he love her like I love you <br /> <br />You can take all that there is <br />But don’t touch the tree of life <br />I just want to know, I just want to know <br />Did time not exist when he held her like this. <br /> <br /> <br />Copyright 2006 Bill Simmons <br />AKA BillWilliamStar <br />BillWilliamStar@aol.com<br /><br />Bill Simmons<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tree-of-life-2/
