We came through the forrest   Of jealousy and greed   All our loved ones before us   Gave us everything we need       To cross that great river   Of every tear was ever cried   'till we find ourselves staring in God's golden eyes       In the desert love waited   Licking salt water from her skin   We could have been sedated   For all that we put in       We thought it was some devil   Who put the crying in goodbye   Till we found ourselves staring in   God's golden eyes   We found ourselves staring in God's golden eyes       And we did all we could do   We couldn't run from me and you   We did the best we could   No matter how hard we tried       Like babes we come whining   For some forgotten sin   Surprised to be shining   Just like diamonds in the wind       Every facet so perfect   And every cut the proper size   When we find ourselves staring in God's golden eyes   We find ourselves staring in God's golden eyes
